The city has been planning for sustainable development since the 1960’s and in many ways has succeeded beyond the small towns of Europe (there are dozens of small European cities that have great sustainability programs). In fact, leaders from cities around the world, including Los Angeles, have consulted with Curitiba leaders to plan their own sustainable futures.
