Huangbaiyu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Huangbaiyu is a model village being created by William McDonough and Partners in conjunction with Tong Ji University, Shanghai; the Benxi Design Institute; and China-U.S. Center for Sustainable Development. The town is being built in stages and is to be model of sustainable development using principles laid out by McDonough. His main thesis is that instead of trying to reduce waste you eliminate it by having everything be capable of being broken down into technical or biological nutrition that can be reused so that no waste is created and no waste needs to be disposed.

As of April 2006, the project is encountering some difficulties: some housing is completed, but no residents have moved in.

By September 2006, 42 houses have been built. ^[1]
