This is the first time I've come across any serious attempt at constructing a green sustainable zero-energy city from the ground up. If this project continues at the pace that it's going (and I sincerely want it to succeed) it would be the very spark that would set off a world-wide revolution in overall city planning for generations to come. In addition, it's hoped that this endeavor would be used as a basis for improving the quality of life of every urban dweller in our global village. All I have to say regarding this article is wow!!!
