His Highness the Aga Khan, the spiritual leader of the Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims, saw the need to relieve this congestion. The result is Al-Azhar Park: a 500-year-old dump-turned-"urban lung" that provides much-needed green space and a source of civic pride.http://video.pbs.org/video/1145385945/Mon, 8 Jun 2009 07:47:54 -0700Nature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/ConservationNature & Environment/EnvironmentNature & Environment/HabitatNature & Environment/Humans & NatureCairo, a city of 16 million, is one of the most densely populated in the world.tv-gConservation, environment, nature, populationNature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/ConservationNature & Environment/EnvironmentNature & Environment/HabitatNature & Environment/Humans & Naturehttp://video.pbs.org/video/1094055821/Buildings are responsible for almost half of all greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. Can a collaborative effort - government leaders, architects, regulatory agencies and building suppliers - avert a climate crisis through policy change and education? Architect-turned-activist Ed Mazria may have the answer.http://video.pbs.org/video/1094055821/Thu, 16 Apr 2009 12:14:55 -0700Nature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/ConservationNature & Environment/Humans & NatureArchitecture 2030 is galvanizing commitment to a carbon-neutral building sector.nrConservation, environmentNature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/ConservationNature & Environment/Humans & Naturehttp://video.pbs.org/video/1094004504/Government buildings are not historically associated with sustainability or exquisite design. But the U.S. General Services Administration's (GSA) Design Excellence program is changing that perception. The program commissioned Pritzker Prize-winning Architect Thom Mayne to design the San Francisco Federal Building, a structure that aims to be the prototype for tomorrow's workplace.http://video.pbs.org/video/1094004504/Thu, 16 Apr 2009 12:14:58 -0700Nature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/ConservationNature & Environment/Humans & NaturePritzker Prize-winning Architect Thom Mayne designs the San Francisco Federal Building.nrConservation, environmentNature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/ConservationNature & Environment/Humans & Naturehttp://video.pbs.org/video/1093965696/Ladakh, India is one of the most remote regions on earth.

Thanks to Deputy Mayor Nicky Gavron, this plan is the core of a sweeping push to transform London into a transit-efficient and pedestrian-friendly mega-city in time for the 2012 Olympic Games.http://video.pbs.org/video/1145396186/Mon, 8 Jun 2009 07:48:26 -0700Nature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/EnvironmentNature & Environment/HabitatNature & Environment/Humans & NatureRegionRegion/EuropeNicky Gavron pushes to transform London into a transit-efficient mega-city.tv-gConservation, congestion, population, pollutionNature & EnvironmentNature & Environment/EnvironmentNature & Environment/HabitatNature & Environment/Humans & NatureRegionRegion/Europehttp://video.pbs.org/video/1144710648/New York City is known for its diversity, but that quality isn't always reflected in its public housing developments, which often ignore the social and cultural characteristics of the communities who live in them.
