Section: Articles Title: Rethinking the city Notes: The world has never been so urban. And humankind has never had so much riding on the success of our cities, which today generate over 80% of global GDP, according to the World Bank. They also produce 70% of greenhouse gas emissions. And as people continue to flock to urban centers in search of opportunity, the challenge of keeping these environments workable (and livable) continues to grow. To better understand how cities are adapting, our reporters went deep in three major metropolises: San Francisco, Shenzhen, and Toronto. We also solicited "city fixes" from a range of experts read on for insights into our shared urban future. This includes: Can San Francisco be saved? / Adam Lashinsky -- Shenzen, the city that sees all / Grady McGregor -- Plotting the rise of the megacity / Brian O'Keefe and Nicolas Rapp -- Toronto upgrade, interrupted / Robert Hackett Related records: En: Fortune. - Amsterdam : Time Warner Publishing, 1999- = ISSN 0738-5587. - 02/03/2020 Volumen 181 Número 3 - 2 marzo 2020 , p. 32- 52Materia / lugar / evento: Ciudades sostenibles Ciudades inteligentes Diseño urbano Emisión de gases Migraciones Innovación Programas de adaptación Inversiones inmobiliarias San Francisco Shenzen Toronto Other categories: 83 Rights: In Copyright (InC) See issue detail
