When I was first assigned this article I thought \u201ceco-villages\u201d (or ecovillages) were just resorts with a green approach to the environment. Well, I was wrong.
\nEcovillages (or eco-villages) are communities with a strong ecological focus<\/strong> but the project is not exactly the one of a week or more of vacation stay. It may actually turn out to be THE PROJECT of a new life<\/strong> for your family and you.<\/p>\n

Eco-village: from one seed many different trees!<\/h2>\n

An eco-village might be urban, suburban, or rural and they can range in size from a few to hundreds villagers. Some eco villages are attempts to shift existing neighborhoods or towns toward more sustainable living and more of a sense of community. Others are newly built, often featuring green or natural building techniques. Ecovillages vary a lot in their degree of community connection and their ecological focus.
\nThough the inspiration and the concept may be different and may have differently evolved along the years, all eco-villages share the same basic idea: a new society is within human reach<\/strong> and each one can make<\/strong> his\/her part in it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
