    Jul 23 2024

    ¡Hola beautiful humans y bienvenidos a otro episodio del Mizter Rad Show! En nuestro episodio número 35, tenemos el honor de contar con un invitado muy especial, el experto en urbanismo y creador del concepto de la "ciudad de los quince minutos", Carlos Moreno. En esta fascinante conversación, exploramos su visionaria idea de transformar nuestras ciudades en espacios sostenibles, descentralizados y amigables con el medio ambiente.

    Moreno nos explica cómo la masificación de los autos ha llevado a la deshumanización de las ciudades y el impacto negativo en la salud urbana. Analizamos ejemplos exitosos como Ámsterdam, donde la reducción del uso del automóvil ha mejorado la calidad de vida. También discutimos la importancia de educar a las nuevas generaciones y cómo el concepto de la ciudad de quince minutos puede ser una respuesta a los retos climáticos y sociales del futuro.

    Además, nos adentramos en la necesidad de cambiar nuestra forma de trabajo y diseño urbano, priorizando la proximidad y la igualdad económica. Prepárense para una charla que cuestiona nuestras ideas culturales sobre la movilidad y ofrece soluciones innovadoras para las ciudades del mañana.
