#Millennials and the Potential Fall of American Cities Three seismic shifts, in housing, transportation and employment, deserve blame for the fall of the American city.

In all but nine of the largest 100 U s. metro areas, the share of employment located downtown declined during the first decade of the millennium.

jobs and urban transport must naturally happen in concert. While two of those three have returned indeed to varying degrees,

Non-automobile transportation, meanwhile, is mixed a bag. Cycling is surging as a commuter method. Adjusted for population growth,

Even in some of the countrieslargest metros Pittsburgh St louis, Minneapolis, Baltimore, San antonio and San diego car commuting is more popular than it used to be.

This has consequences for transportation choices: You can live in an old section of Louisville, Minneapolis or Cleveland where shops,

Employment, however, ain where it used to be. prawling development patterns are very difficult for any mode of transportation besides the automobile,

manufacturing relocated to cheap exurban land near highways, to the American South and West, or to Mexico or Southeast asia.

But the transportation revolution from the horse-drawn omnibus to the private car, untied that knot.

#Volocopter VC200 18-rotor electric helicopter takes flight Volocopter VC200 Greener transportation options have become a priority in the modern world.

Even helicopters are becoming greener. One German company, E-volo, designed several electric helicopters, and one of its models, the Volocopter VC200, recently passed its first flight tests.

Video)##E-volo s#vehicle may look bizarre, but the concept is actually brilliant. It has 18 rotors,

along with 18 zero-emission motors powered by six battery packs. Its frame is created from carbon fiber to keep the aircraft lightweight and It seats two people.

The most clever aspect of the VC200, however, is that it maneuvers by using its multiple propellers

though, the VC200 comes equipped with a parachute. Recently a prototype of the VC200 took to the skies for its first series of test flights.

Not only was impressed the team with the smooth flight experience of the aircraft, but they were surprised also by how quiet the Volocopter ran.

The VC200 took a total of nine flights, including one that lasted nearly 22 meters.

Each flight lasted a few minutes. However, the tests were limited to indoors, so who knows what s possible once the Volocopter is taken outside?

It is E-volo s hopes that the aircraft will eventually get up to speeds of 50 knots and stay in the air for more than an hour.

Although it will still be some time before the VC200 goes into production, results from the successful test flights will be analyzed for future improvements.
