Original Document
Birmingham must lead the field on achieving smart growth. This means finding new ways to reduce transport carbon; to manage energy in buildings; to make good use of water; and to minimise waste.
Plain English Translation
We think that Birmingham must be one of the best cities at finding ways to become better and richer, while at the same time causing less damage to the environment. This is called ‘smart growth‘. This means finding new ways to cut carbon produced by transport; to manage electricity and gas in buildings; to make good use of water; and to create as little waste as possible.
