Ten years ago, a group of people in Ireland came together to try to reduce their overall carbon footprint by building an ecological community. They looked at how they could incor-porate sustainability into every aspect of their lives how they could build and power their houses, how they could earn their living, how they could travel and grow their food.

  • It's amazing how humanity could only cope with "modern living" for a generation or two, before we start to break free from it and go back to natural, sustainable living.

  • Love the village project, I've been following it's progress for a number of years. If I had the money I'd buy a plot of land there and move down in a heartbeat, but alas...:(

    @Crunchy-if you go onto their website thevillage.ie you'll find out a lot more information about it.

  • Very cool. How many people does that 40 acre farm feed? I don't think this clip ever mentioned the exact population of the ecovillage, or explained whether there was a lot of excess produced on the farm that fed people outside the ecovillage. So I'm trying to determine with the allotments and the pasture, etc. how big of a village it could sustain all on its own.

  • Where is Clufjordan?
