How to build housing in the future so it satisfies demands of the future (population, enviroment, economy)
How can new housing in the future be most sustainable?
How to implement and use new technologies that reduce energy consumption?

Just install gentoo to all options.
Never using auto-reply again for shit like this.
The question Ive decided to answer twice now is "How can we contribute to change attitudes and creating incentives to get people to act sustainably?"
I assume you mean energy and environment, so I will focus on environment first. We need to focus on a specific issue as well. So, lets go with litter.
To fix this issue, we can use the current sales taxing system. The solution is to create garbage cans that are put around the city that give a person $0.x for each item thrown away, but that does not take organic items or items weighing under a certain amount. This will even cause people to clean up the city as well. The way to achieve this would be to implement a city wide sales tax on the most common items sold, and then tax the companies ~5 - 6 cents higher, to offset the other items.
Second issue is the energy consumption. Unfortunately, this will in all cases, have a high start up cost. As you know, energy is an easy market because you can create monopolies on it, meaning that the price is whatever your energy company says. The simple way to solve this is to have a city use some of it's finances to create solar power panels in an area with a lot of sun, and basically offer citizens an alternate form of energy that is cheaper to you, but not too cheap, to generate the city money and to also offset the cost of existing and future solar panels. The problem is that implementing this requires a lot of money, or a limited selection of the populace of that city.
Hope these helped, and let me know if this is the best answer.
