Tourism Development and Investment Company (TDIS)

* Which development do you think is the coolest (most interesting)?

Saadiyat Island, is a huge and interesting project. It will help my country to jump many steps in front in short time.

We are considered as one of the most countries who responsible of Global Warming but I think, my country is doing some of great projects trying to solve the problem of Global Warming. Saadiyat Island are being established now to help government to get more benefits from tourists. That benefits may encourage some other countries to the same project. I consider Saadiyat Island project as a huge investment project and as one of solution of Global Warming problem. I think lots of people will invest in that project. I believe that this just the beginning and the government will do the best to be the best.

Mr. Johann’s thoughts and my Opinion

I think Mr. Johann is right in what he said about our responsibilities in changing the climate by pumping a huge amount of harmful gases in the atmosphere and that thing lead to rise earth’s temperature.

Also, I agree with him, all governments in all countries should force their people to shift towards cleaner behavior. For example, I think it is not fear that you do your best to change your bad behavior as much as you can while your neighbor doesn’t care does everything he wants. I think putting some laws and regulations by governments are very suitable solution to decrease the amount of harmful gases that are used by people.

Also, I believe the people should be forced to choose the green option because the results that produced from their bad activities don’t harm them only but affect all people on the world as Mr. Johann said and I absolutely agree with him.

I think there are some people don’t want to change their thoughts about some bad activities such as using fossil fuels because those people are the same people who take profits from fossil fules.

Cool Cities

Global warming is the first enemy of the earth these days. Rising in population increasing in energy consumption as well as increasing in amount of CO2 emitted in to the air are the main reasons for global warming.



There are lots of problems related to the global warming and we have to solve them, but if we don’t, we need to find another earth to live in. Rising amount of CO2 in the air causes lots of disasters so we have to decrease that percentage to live within the capacity of a single earth. We have to decrease it by 1.5 and we call it “Cool Earth 50”. According to last surveys, 90% of Carbon Dioxide emitted in to the air comes from building and transportation.


One of suitable solutions that we have to follow is building Cool City. SDCJ are eleven corporation come together and it was the first company that built cool city. Cool City means that the city doesn’t depend on fossil fuels which responsible of increasing the amount of CO2 in the air but it depends on three kinds of safe energies like Green Vehicle Fleets, Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. It consists of four zones which are Business/Public zone, Residential zone, cultural/Sport zone and Resort zone. In addition to walk to move from place to another place, there are three kinds of transportations are used in the cool city such as Manner Well, Light Rail Transit (LRT) and Water Transportation System.

In summary, as a result of all those efforts, the CO2 emitted in to the air will decrease by 60% and this thing for sure will decrease the bad effects of Global Warming.
