The film of “Cool City” says since the start of the industrial revolution there 
have been some problems associated with economic development such as increasing in energy consumption, increase in the amount of carbon dioxide, and rise in population and finally traffic delay. If we continue emitting carbon dioxide into our atmosphere we will need a substitute for earth, which is impossible, so we have to cut down our emissions to 1.5 to reach the capacity of single earth (Cool City).

If we continue emitting carbon dioxide into our atmosphere we will need a substitute for earth, which is impossible, so we have to cut down our emissions to 1.5 to reach the capacity of single earth (Cool City).Japan was one of the active countries toward this issue, because it had a low emission rate 
among other countries and because it increased its energy efficiency to 37% while decreasing its oil consumption to 8%. However 90% of the carbon dioxide emitted into the air comes from buildings and transportation. In addition, the cool city means a model city which can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 60% as well as provide us with an enjoyable life style. SDCJ form Japan will build it. This city will operate on natural energies, such as it will present solar ships, hybrid cars, light rail transit, and monorail as transportation. Whereas the various zones in the city are Central Business Public zone, Residential zone, Cultural/Sport zone, Resort zone, Solar-Powered Plant Farms and all these are surrounded by Jatropha forest. There are some techniques that will reduce heat such as water, trees and roof membrane (Hope, May.5.2008). It is expected that resident building would reduce CO2 by 30% and other buildings by 50%. Finally, the percentage of reduction of CO2 emissions claimed in the video was 60%.
