Problems in Hongkong’s Sustainable
Community Development
Changes in the
city of Hongkong is rapid over the past few decades, the attention that focuses
on economic development leads to a lot of social contradictions, the public do
not have the paths to participate in the current process in planning and
implementation of city development, which eventually lead to social
contradictions and conflicts.
The lack of bottom-up
community participation leads to distrust between the government and citizens. Under
the current system, people rarely have opportunity to participate in the development
of the community, the ignoring of the old unique culture, lifestyle, block
formation and communities is the main reason for speeding up community differentiation,
especially larger the gap between the low-income people and the government. Poor
and elderly households were neglected. The social development need to balance
economic, environmental and social needs, sustainable communities can make healthy
and happy life. See the advanced city for city development and renewal,
emphasis are put in the public participation and improving the well-being of
people in the community. As for the perfect city for city development and
renewal, community development emphasises the public participation, and
improves the well-being of the people in the community and making good use of
community resources, while Hongkong is ignoring the problem of poverty in the
community and the elderly.
Failed to
implement the concept of environmental protection. In the process of
reconstruction, there was no attention to environmental and cultural
conservation. Although the government has set up cultural conservation policy,
but occasional trees are still cut down, the old buildings are not saved.
Nevertheless, sustainable community development still brings opportunities. Since the government has
decided in developing the city development and planning in the next ten years,
why not putting forward a new way to promote community development, trying to communicate
with people of diverse classes, finding a sustainable way to manage community
development.

Green Infrastructure
Planning should take precedence over the development of green spaces. In many previous plans, it was treated as an unused land. Although the many countries published law of ecological resources protection as well as a series of rules, due to the lack of legal supports for planning, causing that the ecological protection is usually neglected in the process of economic development and city expansion.

Tyree Energy Technologies Building in UNSW
The brochure I found when I visited the Tyree building gave me a touch,
and the inspiration was its energy saving and environmental protection.
Daylighting analysis

Ventilation analysis
When the outdoor temperature is lower than 26 degrees and higher than 18
degrees, the introduction of outdoor fresh air for ventilation can replace the
whole or part of the air-conditioning refrigeration. Natural ventilation can
improve indoor air quality, and is conducive to physical and mental health.
The utility model can open an external window and introduce natural wind
to cool down, and when the wind is cooled, the building enters the building.

Vertical Green Infrastructure
The utility model can be used to shade the
external wall, effectively reduce the surface temperature of the exterior wall
and reduce the convection heat transfer of the exterior wall in winter
Use the local Roofing of the planting roof can effectively improve the
thermal insulation performance of the roof, and the evaporation and cooling of
the vegetation can also help to adjust the climate of the site. Vegetation can
be used, such as less maintenance, pests and less ground cover plants, and
collocation of small shrubs. Using of wooden overhead floors may reduce heat
during the summer, and wind and snow can also be cut off during the winter.
Rainwater collection, earth covering and overhead floor can be provided
with rainwater collection facilities. (Roof garden, for example)
Tyree reminds me of the practical application of sustainable
development, while then central park can really be regarded as an amazing work
of Art. As human has gone through the different stages of society, the idea of
the relationship between natural environment and industrial product has changed,
people has gradually realised the importance of ecological function in urban
environment. This is a change in the traditional way of human behaviour, and
seeks to achieve harmony between human society and nature through the use of
renewable energy and the efficient and recycling use of natural resources. Central
Park gives the dierect impression about the perfect relationship among society,
commerce and environment.

Energy Efficiency in China
A report made by International Energy Association(2011) pointed out that global investment in energy field has gradually form
into the market that could improve the efficiency of energy consumption systematic,
the market is consisted by investors and services provided by individuals,
enterprises government. Meanwhile, energy policy and energy prices are two
important factors that influence the energy efficiency of the market, the
government could influence the energy efficiency, navigate the innovation on
the energy-saving technology and change the way of energy consumption through establishing
energy policy and reviewing the energy price subsidies.
