Wanted!!!! Sustainable Eco-Village

WANTED!!!! SUSTAINABLE ECO-VILLAGE

What the world or we, need now!

What the world or we need now is a plan, or a model or
an example of a what a sustainable eco-village is or would
look like. Any suggestions or candidates?
What would this place be and obviously it would not be
perfect and too, it would have to be able to be customized
to meet local variables and circumstances but it could in theory serve as the
autopoeitic example or blueprint that could be replicated throughout
the world or at least in ones own community, province or
country.
But then what is it we're looking for exactly ..... Utopia?
Well not necessarily ..... a sustainable eco-village is more a
symbiotic community that functions for the benefit not only
of humans but the environment and planet as well.
Is it visionary?..... well somewhat.... in that it assumes
that humans have dealt with, addressed and can manage their violent
tendencies and come to some sort of compassionate reasoning
in getting along with each other and their world, in other words
perhaps that they have learned to fight with their dollars and votes
rather than their fists or guns.
So then.....???
