chapter 1

Once upon a time, the world

!

L I O

discovered oil...

BO OM !

And they began to use it for EVERYTHING...

They used it for making plastics, buildings, medicines and for burning as fuel...

Oil became a political issue... those with oil became powerful,t hos e without it relied on others... this caused conflicts!

Until one day, they realised that the oil would not last forever and was, in fact, about to peak...

U

But they continued to use millions and millions of barrels

THEY COULDN ’T STOP!

They built refineries all over the world

the port becomes not only about worldwide trade, but also about internal trade

materials and energy become scarce, re-use becomes reality, rather tahn a fascination of environmentalists or hippies. flea markets and swap shops become the norm!

cars will be used for commerce rather than transportation...

refineries, tanks and admisitrative buildings are no longer needed for industry. they are repurposed in many different ways ...

some of them ARE used as theatreS

the buildings take on new functions, the port IS returned to the people. from THEN on, THE GOLDEN YEARS WERE back...

counter cultures occupy the port like they did ON THE isle of wight

many of them turned Äąinto gigantic flea markets.

some of them were used as botanical gardenS, WHERE they stARted to grow algAE farmS. These developmentS created a base for future developments.

in each square a different technique was used to process to clean the land

the remediation monster tracked the success of each technique. this process last nearly ten years - after some time scientists, builders and general folk started to call it ...

one of the most important elements for our survival is fresh water, Which will become scarce in future, just as oil is today...

The water industry will become important as water becomes scarce.

Water energy and water desalination industries will grow.
