29 Was können wir lernen? Top Down Ansatz ist fragwürdig Nutzerakzeptanz ist Voraussetzung- Checks and Balances sind notwendig Systeme müssen kompatibel zu umgebenden Systemen sein Verlässliche Regulierungen und Rahmenbedingungen Umgesetzte und gebaute Beispiele auch wenn sie nicht 100% ideal funktionieren sind enorm wichtig Lebenswerte und nachhaltige Stadtentwicklung ist auch in extremen Klimazonen möglich Auch wir profitieren von nachhaltiger Stadtentwicklung und Mobilität im Ausland 57 We will have a soft landing! If we work for a smaller CO2 footprint 58
