Look at the community in which you live and develop a plan to improve the sustainability and livability of the city (if you are in a major city look in your area/neighborhood of the city). Can greenbelts be added: Are there bike trails, bike lanes, or wide sidewalks? Can areas be made into parks? Can trees be planted to sequester carbon and shade streets, sidewalks and buildings? Define what is meant by the terms sustainability and livability and how they relate to cities.
There are organizations that already exists to help small towns do exactly what you are chatting about: www.htccommunity.org/ is one such organization.

what are some ways to develop a plan to improve the sustainability and livability of a city?
When president Obama says Green Jobs will help entrepreneurs and small business, hes talking to white people?
…because lets be honest, we own almost if not all of America right, with a few Asians, and Indians trickled in. Everyone knows black people don’t have one company, business in America, except hair shops, and nothing by them ever gets mass manufactured.
no. race is not a factor
what kind of plan can you develop to improve the sustainability and livability of a city?

YOU INCREASE QUALITY OF TRANSPORTATION, MAKE THE JOB YOU HAVE CLOSER TO WORK, PROVIDE GOOD LIVABLE JOBS FOR EVERY ONE IN THE CITY, HAVE AN IMPROVED EDUCATION SYSTEM, AND RECYLE AND GARBAGE COLLECTION MUST BE IMPROVED, HAVE TOUGHER ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS LIKE NO LITTERING = JAIL TIME
OR HAVE PEOPLE TO CLEAN UP THE CITY FROM LITTER AND POLLUTION
DECREASE FACTORY AND CAR EMISSIONS TO 0 0POLUTION = GOOD
ALL POLLUTION = GET OUT OF THE WORLD
Can someone get green cards and passport (American) with a business?
How long does it take and how much money?
If that person has broken the law and was jailed (for illegal money making) more than once, will there be a problem to get a green cards?
and finally if instead of doing a business, that person gets the green cards from an immediate family member, will that member be responsible for that person?
thank you
normally you dont have both at the same time. a us passport is for a us citizen - if you have a us passport, it lets you in and out of the us without having to have a green card. green cards are normally for those who are still officially a citizen of another country but are granted permanent resident permission to stay in the us.
as far as criminal activity, that is up to the state department for passports or uscis for green cards. their web sites are below;

What environmental sustainability issue does Australia have and is doing to solve it?
I am looking for some info about Australia and about what they are doing to solve this problem.
P.S. I have a paper due tomorrow about this and all help is needed! THANKS!!
Actually I think in researching your question, I may have found the first strong disagreement with wikipedia. When Europeans came to Australia, the Aborigines already use something referred to in the article as fire stick farming, and it goes on to say that the Australian Whites today are using it on a much greater basis. What the natives were doing was burning out the undergrowth, the small stuff and which protected the hard tree canopies, The effects of all this burning is that where the population settled was traditionally better environment with greater rainfall, but now have persistent yearly droughts, and the outback where few people live is getting an abundance of rain. I copied and pasted this from wikipedia to show what is being done about it. Climate change has become a major issue in Australia due to drastic climate events since the turn of the century that have focused government and public attention.[1]. Rainfall in Australia has increased over the past century, both nationwide and for all four quadrants of the nation [2]. Water sources in the South Eastern areas of Australia have depleted due to increasing population in urban areas (rising demand) coupled with climate change factors such as persistent prolonged drought (diminishing supply). At the same time, Australia continues to have the highest per capita greenhouse gas emissions[3].
All federal and state governments have explicitly [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] recognized that climate change is being caused by greenhouse gas emissions, in conformity with the scientific opinion on climate change. Sectors of the population[who?] are actively campaigning against new coal mines and coal fired power stations because of their concern about the effects of global warming on Australia while other groups[who?] are actively campaigning for coal fired power stations and an increase in both number and output of coal mines. Other sectors of the population[who?] believe it is still too early to tell whether or not there has actually been human induced climate change and believe the naturally high variability of Australia’s climate produces too much uncertainty to warrant panic. After publication of the Garnaut report and the White Paper on the proposed Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme members of this group are increasingly viewed[who?] as "Climate change skeptics"[citation needed].
There is expected to be a net benefit to Australia of stabilizing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere at 450ppm CO2 eq [12] although the coal industry argue this proposition[citation needed].

Define what is meant by the terms sustainability and livability and how they relate to cities?
Look at any community and develop a plan to improve the sustainability and livability of that city. Can greenbelts be added: Are there bike trails, bike lanes, or wide sidewalks? Can areas be made into parks? Can trees be planted to sequester carbon and shade streets, sidewalks and buildings?
By definition, cities are just groups of people living in large enough quantities to require the importation of resources.
Cities are inherently unsustainable because they require importation of non-renuable resources, thus requiring constant growth to compensate for their un-sustainability.
