ABSTRACT
Climate change has emerged as a pressing global concern, sparking widespread discussions on its far-reaching impacts. Unlike conventional pollutants, greenhouse gases don’t inflict immediate harm on the regions where they’re emitted; rather, their effects are dispersed across the planet. Consequently, mitigating emissions wherever feasible is crucial. The Metro project aims to mitigate climate change and pollution by offering environmentally sustainable transportation options. The project also strives to improve the livelihoods of socially disadvantaged populations by enhancing their mobility, thereby increasing their access to education, jobs, and other essential services. The study explores the role of the Cairo Metro system as a mitigation measure to alleviate the climate change impacts. By reducing greenhouse gas emissions and decreasing reliance on private vehicles. The findings demonstrate that enhancing public transportation infrastructure is a viable strategy for mitigating climate change effects, promoting sustainable urban development, and improving air quality in metropolitan areas.
