A post requesting applications for a sustainable development teaching position led me to ask myself the following questions. I’m not an applicant, but am posting them here for broader exposure. We need measurable shelter answers to focus these questions on the populations involved. I hope some are interested.
How much land must be reserved to protect our source of life, the Natural Domain?How much land will remain for the Urban and Rural Phyla of the Built Domain?
How much land must be reserved for the Rural Phyla of the
Built Domain?
How much land remains for the Urban Phyla?
How many people can the Rural Phyla feed?
What quantities of land in the Urban Phyla will be consumed
by its Movement, Open Space, and Life Support Divisions?
How much land will remain for the Shelter Division of the
Built Domain?
What average shelter capacity and intensity per buildable
acre will be required to shelter the population that can be fed, and what are the physical, social, psychological, environmental, and economic context implications?
Can the population calculated be sustained by the
environment and ecology preserved?
