The Planning Department (2016) pointed out that one of the planning strategies in Hong Kong is “to promote easy access to public transport, public amenities and neighborhood facilities” (p.29). An interview was conducted by the LSE Cities and the University of Hong Kong’s Hong Kong Jockey Club Centre for Suicide Research and Prevention (Chak, Valadez, Leung, Taylor, & Yip, n.d.). This

upgradation of driverless vehicles to mitigate any safety risks by continuing technological innovation. The article stated that “Driverless vehicle technology will revolutionize the future of automobile driving, making it a nearly risk-free mode of transportation.” (“Point: Driverless Vehicle Technology Is the Future of Driving” (1). According to “Why Self-Driving Cars Might Not Lead to a Huge Drop In Fuel Consumption,”The article focuses on the environmental aspects of autonomous vehicle technology. It
Throughout time new technologies have emerged to solve problems and make life more enjoyable. Along with the benefits and praise, new technology always comes with concerns and potential detriments. Ray Bradbury's “The Veldt” and the concept of self driving cars both pose questions about benefits and risks of new technology arising in the world. Many technologies that are presented in Ray Bradbury’s “The Veldt” have obvious benefits to everyday life. Machines in the house do many of the tedious tasks
3.2. Comfort in public transport In the process of decision-making, two questions systematically arise to the user of public transport. The first is a five-level question, which assesses the service availability (TCQSM, 2013). These levels are as follows: • Spatial availability at the origin and spatial availability at destination: if the service is too far from the origin or the destination of travel, the transit option will not be maintained. For instance, the average walking distance to a bus
providing adequate services and transportation. However, this also cause augmentation of urban sprawls in which this type of urban living has environment costs due to greenhouse gas (GHG) effects that has an impact into climate change. Climate change
the transportation of the nuclear fuel. Compared to other energy generating method such as wind or solar powers that require specific wind speed or weather to optimize the power generated, nuclear power is much reliable for it being able to run under any weather or climate. Just like fossil fuels, the amount of nuclear fuel is finite. However, the supply for nuclear fuels is much higher compared to fossil fuels. According to Steve Fetter, dean of the University of Maryland's School of Public Policy

the promotion is to inform the main target about the offers of a company. Moreover, the promotion is responsible for publicise new products or performances and therefore to submit the public the best image of a company. Common tools for an efficient promotion are for instance advertisement, sales promotion, public relation, sponsoring and trade
production in the country. 3) Mastery of Science and Technology of the State is more master of science and technology will be able to produce more goods and services, and efficient compared to countries that did not hang. 4) The existence of the advantages and disadvantages of production The difference of natural resources and mastery of technology, on the one hand led to an excess production of (surplus) of a type of product, but on the other hand will lead to a shortage of production (shortage) other types
