How to turn Quito into a socially and culturally responsible ecological city

We start from the fact that Quito is the second highest capital in the world after La Paz, which is in the Andes of South America, and that is why the atmospheric pressure is 30 percent lower than on the coast and the air has a lower concentration of oxygen, which is also contaminated by an automobile park, which is almost 40 percent of the country's automotive part. This explains why, despite the fact that it was the city that best complied with quarantine, social distancing, and vaccination, it could not help but be the city that had the most deaths in the Covid 19 pandemic.

In second place, it is the city that has more students, retirees, bureaucrats, police, military, teachers, doctors, engineers and more qualified professionals in the country. At the same time it has the best drinking water, electricity and internet network, sewage network, garbage collection system and maintenance of public areas.

Quito is also an architectural heritage of humanity, for having the largest colonial city in Latin America, but it is also a place where all races, religions, ethnic groups, cultures of the country and of other countries and even continents coexist peacefully.

Being located in the Middle of the World, gives you a great possibility of using solar energy, because the sun, in addition to being very regular in its daily presence, although in the sky it usually has many clouds, allows you to use the roof of the houses and buildings to produce energy, electricity and if solar panel roofs can be placed on the streets, electro-mobilized traffic is possible to replace motorized traffic with fossil fuels, in addition to having a high rate of rainfall, water can be captured on the roofs, and convert it into fuel for hydrogen vehicles, which with the new Chinese technology, allows combustion vehicles to be converted to hydrogen vehicles with cheap converters.

But the great development of the INTERNET network also makes it possible to change education from face-to-face to semi-face-to-face, so that twice a week students go to educational centers, tripling the capacity of these institutions, reducing congestion, risks, and transportation costs for families. In turn, telecommuting is the best option, starting by using your own vehicle for taxis or home deliveries, and turning each house into an office, workshop, store, restaurant, etc. In addition, through the classification and recycling of garbage, as well as the filtration of sewage, it is possible to obtain everything from fertilizers, to bricks, tiles or boards, hoses or plastic containers, and the inhabitants of the city earn by selling electricity, water purified, classified garbage and for the adjustment, adequacy, and decoration of the houses the municipality does not charge property taxes.

In addition, it is necessary that all neighborhoods create neighborhood patrols, which can be made up of neighbors or private guards, very well armed, equipped, and trained by the national police, who would supervise the use and operation of these weapons and patrols, through mobile or fixed cameras, which would accompany the neighborhood and peasant patrols. The fundamental purpose of the neighborhood and peasant patrols is to prevent robbery, crime, kidnapping, and extortion. The peasant rounds also have closed circuits and private chats to monitor.

Finally, the municipality has to create art, craft, science, technology, health, and sports workshops whose purpose is to attract people with artistic, craft, scientific, technological, healing, or sports vocation and skills, multiply their knowledge, abilities, skills, promote them, and even finance them and this without age limit with days for children, others for young people, women, adults and the elderly,

The municipality also has to create information centers, where in addition to informing about the attractions of the city, it informs about services, businesses, professionals, risks, collective activities, and even events or parties that will take place in the city, through the Internet.

The municipality must correct the corruption that begins with the traffic police, the occupation and use of physical space, the permit collection officials of all kinds, including manual or temporary employees, who are always thinking about how to receive a bribe, a gift, a favor in exchange for anything, starting with the electricity company, or drinking water, coercive, etc. Today, in order for them to give you an electricity consumption meter, the electricity company has invented forms and intricacies so that if you don't pay a bribe, there is no connection.

Adapt the places of concentration such as Amazonas Avenue, in the center, Shirys in the north, San Francisco or Santo Domingo, the Historical Center
