Have we been asking the right question? Is there more to it than this?
1. Can you measure what you care about? Measure systems and characteristics of things or measure people and outcomes (health, happiness, safety). Create design and policy incentives that foster sustainable behavior
TODAY, PEOPLE ARE NOT IN THE CENTER OF THE PLANNING PROCESS All cities have - Traffic departments -- Data on traffic volumes and needs -- Prognoses for future traffic volumes Few cities have - Departments for pedestrians and public life - Statistics for the use of public spaces - Strategies for development of city life culture

New York, Times Square
Times Square - before
Times Square - after
40% decrease in pedestrian injuries in Times Square 84% more people are lingering (eg. Reading, eating) 42% of NYC residents shop in Times Square more often The percentage of area employees satisfied with the Times Square experience increased by 72% (from 43% to 74% of those surveyed) 74% of New Yorkers say Times Square has improved dramatically
2. Consider Behavior How can we promote or nudge people to align their habits with the needs of the planet? Investing in public transport is only worthwhile if it people choose to use it. A building is only sustainable if it is part of a sustainable network Investments in green technology is only sustainable if people behave the way we predict they will

3. Do more with less - Can we more efficiently utilize our existing space and buildings rahter than building new ones
How can global urban population grow by 3 billion over the next 40 years? In meeting this challenge, it is important to realise that in 2050, it is likely that up to 80% of the infrastructure of Australian cities would have been built prior to 2010. Transformation by this definition cannot simply be read as rebuilding infrastructure but rather will need to, in the main, involve the rationalisation and better utilization of our existing infrastructure.
