Is this Mr. Beat?

The thing about the grid plan is that it existed wayyyyy before cars and was actually built for streetcars. The problem is not grids, its cars bro sounds like obf and cheddar combined

Just adding to the comments on how the video has so many misconceptions and factual errors it’s disappointing.

Time to spend more money, right??

Two years later, and I‘m sure the situation hasn‘t become any better, including for the ME. Would like an update!

You clearly know that Dubai is in the desert.

How much has it risen ??

Wouldn't ya think that brainy folks would think of the environmental conditions such as temps, humidity, etc before taking a billion bucks to develop.

The thing that truly sets DC apart from other American cities is it’s fantastic public transportation and mid-rise high-density urban design. It’s clearly very much inspired by Paris and does a very decent job functioning like it.

It's probably due to climate change in China, making it very likely that the country will experience water shortages due to drought

75 000 homes is nothing for city planning energy requirements

You sound like lightning mcqueen

We can never win over mother nature... God made mother nature.

Very nice video, but a few corrections: 1. The video implies that the National Mall Pierre L'Enfant planned extended to the Lincoln Memorial. When L'Enfant planned the city, the locaton of the Lincoln Memorial was part of the Potomac River and Mall L'Enfant envisioned only went to 17th Street, on the other side of where the Washington Monument was later built. 2. The map showing the Smithsonians include both the east and west buildings of the National Gallery of Art, however these are not part of the Smithsonian. 3. It's also odd that at the beginning of the video L'Enfant is credited for the wide avenues of Washington DC, but at the end it was stated the wide avenues were designed to accommodate cars, when cars weren't even invented a hundred years after L'Enfant's death. Still, a nice video and the explanation of how Washington DC inspired the design of Brasilia and New Dehli is very interesting.

Stupidity at its finest, traditional solar panels and batteries would have provided energy year round.

Thank you so much for the updates. I was worried about Arizona and Nevada for a while.

Lake mead is a man made Lake. The only environmental damage has been the flooding of the basin when the hoover dam was built in the 1930s. Low waters is a good thing as it restores the landscape back to its original form.

Please compare the same pics. Any honest presentation takes into effect all Colorado River dams. And Meade increases as Glen Canyon recedes. The Southwest is in grave trouble.

It's called liquifration. Humans can't feel it. But the rotating earth has a slight vibration about it. If you take a big shallow bowl, make a pyramid of sand in it, fill half with water and give it some slight shaking moves, the sand pyramid soon dissapears

Good evening sir ❤❤

I think it's important to mention that those taxes as well as road tolls are sort of painfully high. I did a calculation for an import of a used diesel car costs and ended up with a value comparable to its price. The road tolls are very diverse, the highest I've encountered so far was for entering any major city. As a tourist I drove two times into Bergen and paid like 50 euro. The residents have some discounted options, but the scale is similar, I think. Now imagine you have to commute to Oslo regularly. This makes owning a non-electric car extremely expensive in many cases.

Detorit is kinda like both

Wait.. they didn't anticipate how hot it would get in the desert? 😂

Should be a combination of both a solar farm and a home battery / solar panels

He gets it painfully wrong on charging in the United States. Tesla charging is fine works great and there are few locations you can’t go. Charging for everybody else is a disaster area especially the government 7.5 billion for 500k charging stations. They are currently at 8 chargers. Fortunately with Tesla opening to everybody else these problems with be fixed for non-Tesla EVs. USA power grid is going to be another issue especially on east cost which get little sunlight in winter. USA is slow to expand power which it need to expand quickly for EVs and computer particularly AI computation. All this while 20% percent of our power from nuclear will go offline as they are forced to close from being too old.

does that plan include democracy? - ''nope.'' so yeah, nah.

Interesting

I stopped taking the video seriously when it said New York, a city designed in the 17th and 18th centuries and where over half of the residents take public transit, was designed for the automobile. You can make the argument that the grid system was a lot easier to adapt to the automobile, but in no way was New York designed for it.

Thumbs down for your BS clickbait title, nor appreciated. The video itself could be mistaken for a Norwegian government PR presentation for the EV motor industry.

Good design? Dude, you're on crack!

Illuminati design 👹✡️

They look like large children's play houses Somebody sure had more money to burn than brain cells to burn.

This is not the bigger picture. Couple years from now it'll be a lower level again.

American cities suck. American suburbs are soulless.

I bet you the founders as directors of the project managed to get their two years of wages and dividends. Since reopening i imagine they are back on the same gravy train with a reconstructed loan etc

STOP sending water to CA from Lake Mead for agriculture use since they are WAY overallocated and other areas of the nation can grow food that the desert CA Central Valley soaks up like a sponge. What can be done to replenish Lake Mead is to pump Lake Havasu water back into the Mead and limit the water flowing West to CA through the Colorado Aqueduct that will only serve Southern CA RESIDENTS.....

Designed to create solar warming.

Benjamin Benneker , an African American mathematician/astronomer, also had a large role in the design the city

If you say Dubai is unique, I don't know what is.

This discusses me. We are ruining the lives of the wildlife. People complain that there are some critters in their yard, attacking their dog or cat or the owner themselves but in reality, we are intruding in their yards & ruining their lives, food, shelter... etc. Why can't we tear down the old eye-sore buildings that nobody is using? Get rid of that 1st. Leave Mother Nature alone. These poor animals need a place to live too

why is the Washington Monument not aligned in a 90 degree angle to the White House?

POLITICAL AS USUAL. KEEP GOVT OUT OF IT, Create a canal systrm from the northwest that caputure rain water runoff and diverts the excess to the needed area. Why usnt it done? Money and politics. Too many peopke making yoo much money off the shortages

Interesting story. Thanks for sharing However, if you're going to do a story about a place, please learn the correct pronunciation of that place... It is pronounced "TOHN-ə-pah" (or even "TOHN-oh-pah"), but NOT "ten-OH-pah". Details matter...

There was a pilot program at Barstow proving the feasibility of this technology

LV doesn't use anywhere near as much water as the surrounding states do. Ironically, the city of excess is a beacon of resource recycling, and is largely self sustaining as far as water and power go. My wife and I moved out of LV in 2022, concerned that water levels were dropping too low and could make our pool, and therefor our property, obsolete. We didn't want to risk it. Sad to have left, but happy to hear Lake Mead is making some recovery.

Wonder how much heat that generated in that area

If you are designing a capital city out of scratch, then it would turn out ingenious.

the design is ugly and the people are rude

Because they have no property qualified planners. My son has his masters and full accreditation yet can’t get a look in as they hire TCNs as they’re cheap.
