Create Smart Building, Water Management Systems, Transportation Systems etc to Support Smart Cities with Reduced Environmental Impact

"In 1950 more than two-thirds of people lived in rural settlements; in 2014 just over half of the global population was urban. By 2050, the world’s population will be one-third rural and two-thirds urban.

With more than half the world’s population already living in urban environments, ICTs will be essential in offering innovative approaches to managing cities more effectively and holistically – through applications such as smart buildings, smart water management, intelligent transport systems, and new efficiencies in energy consumption and waste management.

Using ICTs to make cities more eco-friendly and sustainable is vital – not just for the well-being of urban inhabitants, but also for the sustainability of the planet.."
