London in the 21st Century: New Visions for London
17 January 1996London is the mother of mega-cities. It creates most of Britain's wealth and contains one fifth of the country's population. It also consumes more energy than Denmark, Greece or Portugal and survives on a 19th century infrastructure of roads, railways and sewers. What did Londoners want London to be? What were the visions of London's future?
Participants included:
Rt Hon John Gummer MP (Secretary of State for the Environment)
Herbert Giradet (environmental expert)
