description The article compares a Natural with an Urban Ecosystem adapted solely to the human species as the reference point for comparing different choices in the achievement of sustainable cities. This framework permits us to understand how Latin American cities although they have transformed their spaces through social, cultural and technological phenomena, have also caused substantial environmental damage. The survey which included large cities and small villages throughout Latin America showed that in the majority of places there are very high levels of pollution. This problem dramatically affects health and levels of well being. Shared responsibility between the State, private enterprise, university and citizens should define guidelines to generate new values that permit an exercise of citizenship that entails transformations that lead to new forms of social organization with greater awareness of the importance of the environment. The conclusion is a proposal for a combination of environmental projects and cultural projects to improve the urban environment as well as social programs that encourage connectivity and foster citizen transformation.

The underlying integrating force is sustainable development and the concepts of economic feasibility, social convenience, technological availability and environmental favorability.
