Whenever we look at Dubai today developers are haemorrhaging money. Eco town planning is been taken to the rich as Dubai builds Xeritown.
Xeritown is proposed to be the worlds first carbon neutral town, offering free reign to architects and designers to propose and build a fully sustainable city. With limitless money and ideas this town should become the benchmark for ideals on eco living. Could we have a rejuvenated blueprint for town planning first pioneered by Le Corbusier? My fear is this city will simply be the new showcase for the money of Dubai, which shuts out the undesirables of their society.
This will be an eco city, but is it an ethical one?
