One Mile EcoTower Coming To London
By Nick April 1, 2008
After we presented you London’s Palestra which is the first green building in London, we also said that there will be many other projects consisting of the construction of eco-structures in the Thames-city. One of them is a skyscraper that will measure a mile height.
The eco-tower is designed by a British company called Populararchitecture and will feature 500 stories where you will find apartments for 100,000 people, hospitals, schools, shops and every other places that a community needs.
This skyscraper will be very hard to build because many think that such thing cannot withstand wind pressure and other forces of the nature, but according to Tom Teatum, one of the founders of the eco-tower, there many developers who are willing to build it. Until we receive further information you can check out the gallery below.

That sounds like a tall tale
IF GLOBAL WARMING SOLUTION’S FIRST STEP IS’NT PUT INTO OPERATION, THEN THE MINERAL NOT EXTRACTED TO PUT IN CERTAIN LOCATIONS AROUND EARTH IN THE OCEANS, THEN THE HEAT WILL RISE AND THE OCEANS WILL RISE. BY 2045. NO LIFE ON EARTH WILL BE ABLE TO BREATHE, LET ALONE GROW FOOD BY 2035 ON EARTH. BY 2048 ALL MATERIAL WILL EITHER BURN-UP OR MELT. SHIPS= FORGET IT. GETTING CLOSER TO THE SUN. OH GOOD LUCK.
Note the date of the posting. Seriously, you guys need to be more observant
It’s a very interesting and cool design with environment in mind, but who is going to pay for it? Also, I do think we are not quite ready for an “Environmental Revolution”.
