Questions from the audience included investing in the local fish sector, retrofitting existing urban development and designing sustainable new cities where public transport, biking, green energy, etc. would be incentivized. A question on Footprinting methodology led to a discussion on the data needs for sustainability analyses\u2014we need physical data.
