後には最悪になってます
こう言って始めることがよくあります
解答を導く方程式があります
出てくるキャラクターです
一緒になっているようなものですから
バラバラに切ったらどんなに彼女が悲しむか
ずっと飲んでいます
並べると2羽の鳥がキスしているみたいですね
すべての都市にあてはまることです
重要なものになりつつあります
バスが地下鉄と同じ役割を果たします
車ばかりに頼ってしまうと―
都市のデザインです
このアイデアは進行中です
私はいつもこんなことを言っていました
支配することまではできません
そのアイデアが
子供たちをどう教えるかに関係してします
すべて取り組む必要があります
忘れてはいけません
異なる役割を果たすことができるのです
そう 早く行う必要があります
日本庭園 ドイツの公園
一つゼロを取るところから始まります
そこで提案するのは都市の鍼治療です
通常の計画プロセスを支援するアイデアのことです
最も美しい公園でもあります
速く動く必要があることを
有能な人物になることはありません
家でエネルギーを節約 !♫
廃棄物を減らそう !できる!♫

Why you should listen
For many city governments seeking visible improvements in their congested streets, the pace of change is measured in months and years. For Jaime Lerner, it's measured in hours. As mayor of Curitiba, he transformed a gridlocked commercial artery into a spacious pedestrian mall over a long weekend, before skeptical merchants had time to finish reading their Monday papers.
Since then he's become a hero not only to his fellow Brazilians, but also to the growing ranks of municipal planners seeking greener, more sustainable cities. His dictum that "creativity starts when you cut a zero from your budget" has inspired a number of his unique solutions to urban problems, including sheltered boarding tubes to improve speed of bus transit; a garbage-for-food program allowing Curitibans to exchange bags of trash for bags of groceries; and trimming parkland grasses with herds of sheep.
In addition to serving three terms as mayor of Curitiba, Lerner has twice been elected governor of Parana State in Brazil. His revolutionary career in urban planning and architecture has not only improved cities worldwide, but has also brought him international renown. Among his many awards are the United Nations Environmental Award (1990), the Child and Peace Award from UNICEF (1996), and the 2001 World Technology Award for Transportation.
