Totally Solar City

...and in Florida, nonetheless. Where else could the solar idea work better? None really come to mind. A former NFL lineman turned real estate mogul has proposed the idea of a solar powered city near Fort Myers, completely sustainable on its own. He projects close to 65,000 residents could live and work in the community, which would generate all of its energy through the sun (with a small portion allocated to wind or water) and which would have its own businesses set up in the area (mostly solar energy and 'green' companies) to allow all commuters to walk, bike or run to work each day. What an amazing entrepreneurial idea.
