Assignment: Summary on "Developing Sustainable Infrastructure in New Cities"


In the article “Developing Sustainable Infrastructure in New Cities”, Cho (2014)  claims that the enhancement in performance and volatility of infrastructure is needed to accommodate the 21st century’s fast urban growth. She mentions that there are economic, social and environmental challenges for considerations in addition to the conservation of energy resources. She argues that overcoming the challenges is crucial in creating a sustainable and efficient infrastructure development. The writer then cites the application of the Envision Sustainability Rating System in her Impact King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC) Fellowship in Saudi Arabia.

  1. Hi Kerrie,

    Few points to note, since you started off with present tense( claims)
    I noticed afew minor problems, correct me if i am wrong.
    noticed that you have the same problem as Xueyuan's post. First things first, if I am not wrong" Developing Sustainable Infrastructure in New cities" is the topic, not the article/ It should be (New Cities Foundation).

    1) is needed(needs?) to accommodate the 21st century’s fast urban

    Also you should probably end it with a thought(or feeling) against the article. To express your stand.

    Cheers,
    Nic
