I am sure it's explained in the video...but why is it always some 007 futurama site they are building on...I think that the current stand of sience is that these man made structures are not sustainable over time...heck, land based projects hardly are.

Some of those involved in the Venus Project are fully paid up members of the Wingnut's R Uz society, it cannot be denied. But, as I say, the core foundations of their thinking, in terms of the fact that we have to change how we do business radically if we want to survive, cannot be gainsaid for much longer.

I'm still pinning my hopes for the future of our society to the realization of the warp drive.

I think it is a great idea that I wish could be reality, but like communism it looks really good on paper but there is that whole "Human Greed" thing that comes into play and the whole thing goes to hell in a hand basket

And it is greed for money and/or power that I am talking about when I say greed
