The Future Is Villages


1. Self sustaining ‘bubble’ economies that are networked with bigger bubble clusters.

2. The future is villages with population of 10000 people.

3. That’s 40 communities of 250 people each. 250 is close to the Dunbar number.

4. Ten bubble villages can share resources like hospitals and schools and law enforcement and fire stations..power grids and essential services etc.

5. Every bubble cluster grows what it can and manufactures what it can and trade with others.

6. Schools and jobs are mostly remote.

7. Autonomous transport systems are on two levels..over ground and under ground. Underground is intra city transport. Over ground is for inter city transport. Pavements also can be used for last mile deliveries.

8. Housing is high density surrounded by lots of open space. Ratio is 1:2.

9. Every bubble cluster village has a canal system. Food is produced in two ways..synthetic food vs more expensive ‘natural’ food. Produce is indoors as well as field grown.

10. Outside human habitation, autonomous Ag grows food in industrial Scale for grains, oil, dairy, spices, fodder and fiber.

10. Half the world’s land is set aside for habitat and allowed to rewild. Same with marine conservation and regeneration.

Ok. Thoughts?

I guess you forgot kindergarten and primary school. (And probably secondary school.) I just finished a Zoom video conference while one of my children was climbing me and other was screaming that wants chocolate milk. (The third one is old enough to run away from the mess.)

Awful.

Seems like a perfect plan for dystopia.

Bubble cluster x3400b has annexed all bubbles in the pacifc region to firm a super liberterian bubble.

Bubble z1200a had been euthanising gingers in order to create a pure and perfect society.

Dunbar village 2430yy has voted against vaccination and euthanised 15 remote citizens who woulf not comply wth devaccination.
