Abstract
This paper proposes a future urban that is bioethically viable not only in hardware
construction but also in software equipment supporting the hardware’s viability for a
harmonious relationship between humankind and nature. The future urban must not develop
to become only a gathering of people in the city but ought to be designed to integrate within
the global ecosystem. This paper will suggest a list of basic infrastructural requirements for an
ecologically sustainable future urban.
The methodology used in this paper is qualitative descriptive, derived from paper’s literature
reviews along with other scholars who provided insight for the author to develop a list of
recommendations for future urban planning.
