Abstract

Environmental investment in low-carbon urban mobility contributes to the promotion of strategic goals to reduce global climate change, achieve global environmental quality, and preserve the public health of societies. In order to achieve this concept, an integrated relationship must be achieved between planning, environmental technology, information technology, and support. And the legislation that supports future plans for urbanization The research also aims to formulate a methodology to activate the role of environmental investment in low-carbon urban mobility in future cities as a tool to reduce climate change. The research problem represented in the gap between the goals of low-carbon urban mobility and the current mobility schemes has been studied in urbanization, one of the main causes of global warming and the global climate crisis that the global reality suffers from. Through the theoretical, analytical approach represented by literature reviews for each of the concepts of environmental investment, the concept of low-carbon urban mobility and its objectives, and general principles for achieving the concept of low-carbon urban mobility in future cities. Then the analytical study of the leading urban practices of low-carbon mobility (Paris, France, Copenhagen, Denmark, Songdo, Japan) from the visions and strategies that were implemented in those practices. And extracting the most important criteria and indicators through which environmental investment in low-carbon urban mobility can be evaluated in city plans. Then a case study in the new administrative capital in Egypt, as one of the models of the new urban trends in Egypt. By establishing new cities concerned with preserving the environment, reducing carbon emissions in urbanization, and achieving the vision of Egypt 2030, then evaluating the case study for the extent to which environmental investment standards and indicators have been achieved in urban mobility. Then followed by the results and recommendations represented in the methodology used to achieve environmental investment in existing and future urbanization. Then search for recommendations.
