At todays meeting we briefly discussed looking into the Ecovillage network as possible contacts that could help or join us. Their mission is based around creating a sustainable future by using their network of sustainable ecovillages to further knowledge and participation. Their objectives seems to be similar in enough ways to ours, since we intend to use and share sustainable living techniques with the people who live around the island.

Their main site can be found here:

www.ecovillage.org

The Ecovillage Network of the Americas' about page can be found here:

If anyone has any thoughts on how to bring our project closer to completion through this organization or how Floating Man contribute to Ecovillages and visa versa, post away.

    I have visited a couple of these.......

    they were Ok.

    My issue is that all of these required quite a bit of conformity to some rather dogmatic views......

    I kind of prefer a somewhat libertarian group with respect for differing ideals................not that these aren't green or sustainable as this is theoretically on an island.
