 1. Efficient mass transit

The city is improving mobility by upgrading

its high-capacity, low-emission transport
systems and improving the maintenance
and inspection program for private vehicles.
2.Solid waste management
México plans to improve collection and
disposal of solid waste with more efficient
solutions — including potentially using landfill
gas recovery to supply clean energy. Residents
are also following new trash and recycling
regulations.
3.Energy-efficient buildings
One key initiative is an intensive program
to replace lamps with better technology. A
new project to convert four public
buildings to efficient energy usage was
recently approved.
4. Renewable power supply
Mexico City invests in renewable power
projects like installing photovoltaic panels on
public and private buildings to generate
renewable energy and installing solar water
heating in 26 hospitals.
5. Reduced burning of agricultural waste

Through fire prevention workshops,

treatment of controlled burns and more
activities, Mexico City is helping to regulate
the open burning of agricultural wastes. A
buffer zone is being created between the
agricultural and forest areas.
