Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates. It is also an active member of the gulf cooperation council (GCC). The city was planned in the 1970s, and had estimated a number of 600,000; however it has exceeded this number to up to 2,600,000. Many projects are being constructed to help in reducing the pollution and increasing healthy life. For instance Al Tagaa Tower and Masdar City.
Masdar City is a new project that was initiated in 2006. It is being constructed 17 kilometers (11 mi) east-south-east of the city of Abu Dhabi, beside Airport. This city will rely entirely on solar energy and other renewable energy sources, with a sustainable, zero-carbon, zero-waste ecology.
Altagga tower is also a great example of how Abu Dhabi is seeking for a new environment in the city its being built by Germans of 400 meter high.This tower is expected to generate its own electricity. Moreover, the tower is expected to reserve it temperature to 20 degrees, even if the temperature rose to 50 degrees.
Abu Dhabi is one of the cities that are contributing to help the world be a better place, for the future generation. Accepting projects that helps the environment and putting budget towards them proves that UAE national mentality have been improving, and thinking for the future.
