In the last century, our cities were designed for a future based on individual car transport. We know today that this has been destructive, impaired the urban quality of life and is in the long run not sustainable. We are in urgent need to prepare our urban environment for a cleaner, more resource-efficient future when oil will no longer be so readily available. Some global cities are already forerunners in the transition towards a post-carbon economy and life style.

在上世紀，未來城市發展乃根據個人汽車運輸而設計。今天，我們知道這設計已經破壞及損害城市的生活質素，從長遠來看是不能持續的。當石油將不再容易獲得的時候，我們迫切需要準備一個更清潔、更加節約資源的未來城市環境。一些國際城市在邁向「後碳」經濟和生活方式的轉變上已經成為先驅。

This discussion forum presents Vienna’s mobility & transport systems and discusses development strategies for a post-fossil future up to the year 2050. They ask how the transition to post-carbon urban mobility might foster sustainability, resilience, and security while improving quality of life. They suggest that a shift beyond oil is necessary and vital for maintaining resilient urban environments. They present models of living and mobility that require no fossil-fuel energy input.

是次講座將會聚焦維也納的流動及交通系統，介紹及討論維也納直至二零五零年的交通發展計劃，如何減少或甚至取締化石燃料；當中提及轉化成「後碳」都市後，如何加強市內交通的可持續性、彈性及安全，並同時提高生活質素；提議必須轉換使用化石燃料以外的能源，此舉對維持具彈性的都市環境十分重要；展示無化石燃料的生活及交通模式。

This seminar relates to the exhibition Smarter Than Car – Urban Mobility After Cars and Oil.
