Until cities produce
everything they consume. |
In an ever-changing world innovation
is not an option, it is a necessity.
Climate change and social exclusion require us to reinvent the fundamental systems which we depend upon, a task which requires courage, coherence and long-term thinking. The rate at which humans consume planetary resources is putting the systems of our planet and ourselves at risk. In order to revert the consequences of rapid urbanization, we need a deep transformation of how we organize production and consumption in cities.
Fab City members, cities, regions and countries, agree to commit efforts and resources in order to achieve the 2054 challenge for cities to produce at least 50% of the energy, food and products they consume, and to deploy circular economy strategies for the relocalisation of production, and the technological empowerment of citizens.
