Leading by example

Many cities with sustainability considerations could be looked at for reference: Curitiba, Brazil and Hammarby Sjöstad- a district of Stockholm, Sweden.
I became aware of Hammarby Sjöstad when it was the subject of an episode of 'One Planet', a programme broadcast on the BBC world service. The municipality is low-carbon and more or less sustains itself. Melbourne should be like this city as well as Curitiba.
