Since the start of the industrial revolution there have been some problems associated with economic development such as increasing in energy consumptions, increases the amount of carbon dioxide and finally traffics. But if we don’t solve these problems we will need at 8%.However 90% of the carbon dioxide emitted into the air come from buildings and transportations. Cool City is a model city which is a new method of technology that is going to be build by SDCJ which is a Japanese company. The city will conclude three types of least another earth. But to decrease the amount of carbon dioxide emitted in to the air to live within the capacity of a single earth we will need about 1.5.In Japan during the last 30 years GDP has gone up 100% while energy efficiency has increased 37% and oil consumption has decreased transportation that will be used in it such as monorail station, LRT “Light Rail Transit” and water transportation whereas the various zones in the city are business, residents and culture. This city also will use some techniques that will reduce the heat from the air for example water, trees and roof membrane. There are two types of buildings in that city which are expected CO2 reduction namely commentarial building which reduction 50% and the other one called residence building which reduction 30% and the overall percentage of reduction of CO2 emissions claimed is 60%.
