This is a Foster proposal for a whole city in Abu Dhabi. Interesting concept.

wow, I have to say I'm a bit skeptical but it certainly sounds like a cool project.

You mean green as in they'll funnel in water to keep the grass green or green as in enviro-savvy?

Yea so this is supposed to be a green project, but in the background what they dont show the whole time they will be pumpin that black gold into the refinery and then into your/their cars and straight into the atmosphere.

So well call it green for now.
