Do we need SUE M? (YES!)














Outcomes of February "Dynamics":

All the reason why we DO WANT SUE M (Sustainable Urban Environment Model)

A model is useful as a reference for us to know where should we move forward; it doesn’t mean that we must copy it.
We can change ourselves as we build up the model.
We can provide the world with added value and not just benefit for the companies.
The world is strained and worn out.
It is necessary to know, measure and quantify the economic, social end environmental reality in order to be able to manage and guide global development efficiently.
With a SUEM we can touch sustainability.
We need to grant the feasibility of the project.
It is possible today to plan and understand the complexity inherent to the city before building it up; think more, build less!
Because of health reasons.
It’s a tool for understanding, explaining and representing the idea of sustainable urban… It’s something difficult to represent, but a representation (maybe mental) is necessary to understand and create.
With a SUEM we can include participatory means.
There’s business opportunity.
We are not happy with our current environment.
It can bring more equality within the “rich” society & toward the “poor” countries; & future generations can see nature/earth as we do.
We can understand urban system dynamics.
It will provide us with a model to work together in a powerful & sustainable way & it doesn’t exist yet, so let’s innovate and create it.
We can help new generations to have a better environment & give something back to society.
It can gather all necessary info & data in order & systematically arrange everything to get results.
It’s a good beginning, a good framework and maybe also a good conclusion.
It can make visible and concrete our goals.
We talk a lot about innovation and creativity & this is a chance to do as we preach; therefore we need it to be coherent.
We are trying to be part on that “change of mind” of the urban concept where sustainable & environment take part of it.
