This is the dream of the 15-minute city — an urban planning concept that professor Carlos Moreno first proposed in 2016 and which has As a result, the carbon footprint associated with transportation would diminish, as would the pollution. Emissions from vehicles running on fossil fuels release pollutants like particulate matter , nitrogen dioxide , and volatile organic compounds into the air. These pollutants can irritate the respiratory system and lead to conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, and reduced lung function. With lower traffic volumes, we would breathe better quality air, reducing medical ailments like asthma.
Another approach to building 15-minute cities is pedestrianization, a concept that prioritizes the needs of pedestrians over those of motorized vehicles. Pedestrianization often involves building wider sidewalks and safer pedestrian crossings, and implementing policies to limit car speed and car access to certain areas., whose streets are often closed or restricted to local traffic as a way to prioritize cycling, walking, and local businesses.
Some people even claimed that the 15-minute cities concept is a plot to keep them “locked” in their neighborhoods.
