Sustainable development requires principle changes in goals, indicators and values urban areas to well-known principles from the fundamental work “Limits to Growth” [20]. Multidisciplinary and cross-sectorial teams of experts, planners and authorities need to elaborate jointly national and inter-regional strategies to the ecological mode of urbanization to turn dynamics of megapolises growth to ecopolises. New type of urban and ecopolis strategies as the core of urban strategy tested on the example of Korolev science city in Moscow Region by ecosystem restoration, evaluation of risks and calculation of resources required for implementation ecological master plan. This task force elaborated and designed with strong participation with the city council of Korolev by a joint Russian and Italian team of students and professors [15].
