Abstract
Over the last few decades, Latin American cities have been undergoing a rapid process of population increasing. With scarce investments in infrastructure, they are unable to meet the demands. Some of the consequences of this excessive population growth include a failure of the transport system, inefficient public services, the formation of urban heat islands, among other consequences, all of them contributing to a steep fall in life quality and energy consumption increasing.
Given the precarious conditions observed in large Latin American cities, especially in metropolitan areas, and the disconnection between the urban built and natural environment surrounding them, there is a call for action, from intervention in the territory already consolidated, to the development of future cities through sustainable urban criteria.
