Sustainability of “Kathmandu Sustainable Urban Transport Project”

I hope to live to the day the plans are implemented!Had public transport comprised 71% of the operational vehicles, and consumed only 1.4% of total energy and contributed to 53% travel demand, the city would have been relatively sustainable. Why not replace micro buses with bigger buses and start safer and more comfortable travel? Many will rethink if they are planning to purchase motorcycle or car, after all oil prices are increasing...

No doubt capacity building is indeed the roots in order to grow into sustainable management of the whole system, but the question is who is feeding?? Unless and until the participation of pedestrian, commuters, drivers and moreover the people of the city are excluded from the project, the question can again be raised in its vision!!

Heaven Here on Earth - Lodge Thasang Village

It’s pretty interesting to know such use of modern science and lifestyles have been incorporated into the rural areas of the country. There was a time, and I could be right that still today, you tend to see rural amenities and houses. But this changed my perspective completely. Now, next time i do not need to frown up when I plan a trip down there. Awesome to read it.

7 Secrets to Sustainable Architecture

A very good article to illustrate energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. But from what I have studied and learned, sustainability also incorporates inclusiveness (social sustainability) and economy (economic sustainability) in architecture/ planning. May be this aspect has not been explored in the article. Anyway keep up the good work.
