sustainable cities and communities

URBAN PLANNER
Cities take up a mere 3% of our Earth’s landmass, but they produce 75% of our global carbon emissions! This simple fact shows how critical it has become to manage our cities responsibly. Urban Planners construct small- or large-scale development plans for inclusive and sustainable urbanisation.

AUTO MECHANIC
Car emissions send greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, cause air pollution in cities, and damage health. AutoMechanics repair and maintain cars, lawn mowers, lorries, and other types of
engines to make them more efficient and reduce their emissions.

INSURANCE BROKER
When natural disasters - including water-related disasters –strike, many people and businesses find it impossible to recover financially. Certain Insurance Brokers can help people mitigate the damage of natural disasters, not only by managing insurance claims, but by educating their clients on disaster recovery planning.

PUBLIC TRANSPORT DRIVER
Millions of city residents depend on Buses, Taxis, Trams, etc. for their everyday mobility. Public Transport Drivers should drive responsibly – both in terms of safety and fuel-efficiency – and pay special attention to the needs of people with disabilities, the elderly, pregnant women and children.

WASTE COLLECTOR
What would it be like if nobody collected your rubbish? Although it may not seem like a pleasant job, Waste Collectors are unquestionably vital to the functioning of a city. As a Waste Collector, you should prioritise collecting waste correctly (e.g., recyclables vs. non-recyclables), rather than quickly. This supports the environmental aspects of waste management systems.
