FOOD, WASTE, AND STABLE  STATE.

Ecotopia has a minister of food, yes, food, nothing else. (Although the department does over ag). Keeping in with its "green" way of life the food here is green to, literally. Instead of getting an interview the secretary herself, I got a assistant deputy, who lectured me in the worst office I've ever seen. More like a lab than a office.  The man was non impressive those this kind of position, but that Ecotopia for you. We sat down on cushions on the sunny floor and he starts talking about waste. Everything after independence, waste, scrapes, everything went into a recycling system and dumped back on the fields as organic fertilizer. This of course was expensive and they were called "sewer socialist". But as with every word I've said in this country, I got a free lecture with this to about how its better than are system. And then it moved on to food. After independent production was scaled down and became organic. This to came like a lecture.  This system is moral and the food does taste good and its not expensive. I asked him about what part of civilization they were going to destroy next he responded by saying he would only respond to food related questions. 

CAR-LESS LIVING IN ECOPTOPIA'S NEW TOWNS
Life has become urbanized or is now in rural capacity. Electric vehicles are made in cities and then bring food in from the country. These vehicles are made in workshop type style NOT in a assembly style manner. Factories are surrounded by neighborhoods with library's, bakeries, and other such things. Almost everything here is made out of the now plentiful wood resources. These wooden constructions are surrounded by various types of greenery. Streets are named NOT numbered. Food is brought home in bags or bikes. Large numbers of people are able to fit into very small areas. The water here is crystal clear and clean. Fishing and swimming take place right of the dock. Manufacturing here is easy and lighthearted. Living conditions have turned old suburbs into highly packed but compact areas filled with natural areas.
