REVIEW  

Ò  Last  year  it  was  pointed  out  that  Millions  of  people  worldwide  are  on  escape  because  of    É Wars  É Economical  difficulties  É Natural  disasters  

Ò  There  need  to  be  provided  educational  and  practical  tools  to  teach  people  on  how  to  help  themselves.  

Ò Maimonides:  Give  a  man  a  fish  and  you  feed  him  for  a  day;  teach  a  man  to  fish  and  you  feed  him  for  a  lifetime.

MULTIPLY  

Ò An  Ecocity  is  more  a  cell  than  a  city,  therefore  

Ò  Plan  the  É Food  cell  É Builder‘s  cell  É Medical  cell  É Vehicle  cell  É Fishpond‘s  cell  É Farmer‘s  cell  É Etc…

ACHIEVEMENT  

Ò  In  last  year’s  presentation  one  of  the  major  points  was  to  find  land  to  build  a  prototype  

Ò On  our  desert  trip  last  fall  we  got  promise  for  that  peace  of  land!  É Beautiful  location  É Accessible  by  bicycle,  car  and  bus  É Only  20  mins  away  from  major  desert  high-­‐tech  university

THE  PLACE

MATERIALS  ONSITE  

Ò To  let  people  start  debt-­‐free,  we  need  to  use  as  many  onsite  materials  as  possible:  É Lateric  clay  from  local  quarries  É Sahara  sand  É Lime  stone  É (MgCl  from  Death  Sea  salt)  É (Fly  ash  -­‐  probably  limited,  as  power  stations  are  slowly  converting  to  natural  gas)  

É (Any  other  chemicals  would  be  obtainable  quite  easily)

CONTINUATION    

Ò My  personal  priorities:  É finish  Swiss  house  as  base-­‐camp    for  future  developments  

É Create  some  additional  income  É Continue  with  EcoCell  (EcoCity)  project  

Ò Some  slides  about    my  current  building    project:

GEOPOLYMER  –  LOOKING  FOR  ADVICE  

Ò  Reaglomerated  lime  stone  seems  to  be  appropriate  for  diffusion  friendly  wall  building  of  multi  floor  buildings.  How  can  we  enhance  its  insulating  properties  without  loosing  mass  and  strength  –  Cenospheres?  

Ò  Is  there  a  GP  system  dense  enough  to  keep  an  encapsulated  vacuum  forever?  

Ò  What  formula  to  use  for    É  pavements?  É  ceilings  /  slabs?  É  static  pilars?  É  Roof  tiles?  

Ò  If  you  have  any  solutions,  please  come  back  to  me  –  thank  you!
