wubbo ockels on the sinking of his sailyacht ecolution

The former Dutch ESA astronaut Wubbo Ockels (1946) made a statement concerning the sinking of his sailboat Ecolution, the most sustainable yacht on earth today. On the night of November 30 2010 the electronic wiring / equipment and the enormous battery-pack of the Ecolution was destroyed. As it seems a professionel skilled person made the boat sink for half a meter, not much, but enough to cause damage for meaby a million euro. In the days after this deed of sabotage on the cause of sustainability, Ockels promised a reward of 10.000 euro for the person who can explain him the reason why this happened. For the Dutch magazine on sustainability, P+ People Planet Profit, Ockels made this announcement in English. Ockels is now professor of Aerospace for Sustainable Engineering and Technology at the Delft University of Technology.

ik denk dat sommige mensen moete hebben met het idee dat mensen zelfvoorzienend kunnen worden. dan verliezen ze macht. maar of dat het motief is of puur afgunst? i don know. maar wel erg kinderachtig. het is zon super idee en zon mooi concept om mensen anders te laten denken. zoiets moet beloond worden juist!!!
