The world is becoming more smaller than it is, The one reason that cars or planes or any others are making the world small. It is good that if we look its posative side but there are a lot of negative side than the posative side. one striking example is pollution. It is the main reason that we should lessen the transportation system in the limited extend or we even can say that it would be great if we destroy all the transportation that is working with harmful oils and build new kind of transpotations insted of that transportations. it might be energy cars that will fit our benefits in the system of health care or also save money.

Fortunately, urban development that embraces such things as mixed uses, walkability, cycling, transit, parks, and vibrant public spaces has become accepted wisdom across the developed world. From Suwon, South Korea, to Bogotá, Colombia, cities are waking up to the quality-of-life benefits of designing cities for people as opposed to cars.
And why wouldn't cities embrace these changes? Mounting evidence suggests built environments designed to make our streets more hospitable, our public spaces more inviting, and our amenities closer to us benefit communities socially, environmentally and economically.
When people live closer together in mixed-use neighbourhoods, they enjoy a more vibrant street culture, safer neighbourhoods, and a greater sense of community. Through contact in public spaces, community members build necessary social capital upon which they can draw to combat isolation and access support or assistance from others.
Positioning community members so they can engage in their daily activities closer to one another not only enhances social interactions, but also makes our cities greener. Living closer and driving less are keys to sustainability.
Still not sold on the idea? Well, consider this: American real estate agents who belong to the U.S.-based National Association of Realtors — a trade association with more than one million members — at their most recent national conference were educated about the merits of walkable urban communities.
A panel of experts at the conference reported residential walkable communities generate four times the tax revenue compared to regional and business malls.
