DR needs to impose Zoning restrictions... meaning to curb the margins of the city and allow buildings expand upward rather than sideways because we'll need land for cultivation and clearing of CO2

Yes true, as well as re-organize its traffic system, to prevent traffic jams that will pollute. Expand and improve its transportation system.
