Sustainable evolution/Musings

This page is to collect any thoughts and ideas which may be picked up later for deeper consideration. What springs to mind?

Directions
Ideas to explore:


 * Indicators of Sustainable Evolution
 * Imagine
 * Designing cities (and broader areas) for co-habitation which are sustainable in their own right (little or no ecological footprint beyond city boundaries)
 * Asscociated with this: a plan for reduction in human population such that the unoccupied spaces in the cites are easily taken up by other species
 * Over time, as human population reduces, reduce city size and extend natural habitat.

Data Relevant to Sustainable Design

 * Biodiversity mapping
 * GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility)
 * Approaches to
 * Biodiversity Mapping Approaches
 * Q: will more than one location be taken into account for migratory/vagrant species?
