Prof. Wangda Zuo presented at the Makassar Low-Carbon City with Metaverse. This event was opened by Mayor Mohammad Ramdhan Pomanto and Helen Santiago Fink from US-ASEAN Smart Cities Partnership. Five international experts shared their experiences in achieving low-carbon cities by working on waste, energy, and water systems. The passion for a low-carbon city was evident as more than 1000 participants attended this event in person and online.
We are thankful for the support of the National Science Foundation (NSF) towards our joint US-Indonesian team as we work with the City of Makassar on smart garden alleys over the past three years. We look forward to extending this collaboration to look into net zero carbon cities for Makassar.
