Not only that, but as someone pointed out in my previous post, there aren’t the jobs to support that many people. Not just that but what about other services like electricity, water, sewage? This area might not be able to handle that without significant infrastructure investment.

Then again, I have to ask the question, why not build smaller projects that are eco-villages? 50-100 houses built around small wind turbines or eco-sewage plants etc? They aren’t beyond our capability or knowledge, and since we’re supposedly embracing eco- technology anyway, this would be a good point to start from to discover any issues we might have overlooked before scaling up.
