I saw this show on television about Green Living, new architecture, working with nature and thought it interesting. This guy has designed buildings, communities and even whole cities that work with nature, don't pollute and are amazing to look at. Many of them are built either right above the ocean or under neath (about 40 feet under), many built on land, but all built and made to be GREEN. I guess Al Gore did not see this and the GREEN movement will be glad to know something like this exists.
Take a look at the site. There is a photo gallery under the TECHNOLOGY section and all questions about how this new type of living will effect the earth, economy, politics, businesses control over industry etc. Maybe once this stuff is implemented we can all stop hearing about Carbon Footprints, Co2 gas, Ozone depletion and glacial melting. Above all there will be no need to sign pacts and treaties that will undermine the sovereignty of nations or put them under control of other nations of who no one really knows their intentions
