Yay! New segment!
Intelligent Design is a series aimed at investigating a few things - first, how have we arrived at this place just by building things (mostly infrastructure), what we're designing and building now, and steps we should be taking to move forward into an age where we design things to (first) meet the 450 by 2050 deadline and (second) promote a future that can live with the world, not at its expense.
So a selection of random topics could be:
Geothermal water heating/cooling
BedZED sustainable living community
The growth of current sewer treatment systems
Ecoroofs
Integrating solar panels into the urban landscape
Building better parking lots
The deterioration of modern building materials
And many other things!
Stay tuned!
