Who Wants to Live in This Giant Slinky With Me?


This prefab arc, houses 10,000 people. It has a wind power generator, solar panels, and in the aquatic version's case, draws upon thermal water energy. It can grow its own food inside.
In the event of disasters like earthquakes floods and tornadoes people can find refuge in it.
It resembles a large slinky and as can be seen floats too .lol

This is a very interesting concept. It will be interesting to see if it is ever built and used.

George - I am waiting to win my lottery and when I do, this might be a project for me lol but like anything else, to build it is one thing. To maintain it is quite another.But if you build it and keep it for when it's needed like with the Haiti situation, this might be a solution to many problems.10,000 people would have food and shelter and jobs and probably a health center and the government would not be involved.
The foreign aid organizations should find this idea quite interesting.
