why self sufficiency?
WE want to USE EMPTY LOTS IN THE CITY For experiments in sustainable living
Lack of housing and workspace is a big problem in Amsterdam. At the same time there are lots of land and water not used and unattended for years. The combination of rural survival skills, creativity, some belief in a healthier planet and new household scale technologies can tackle those two problems in one blow. With the present state of technology it is more efficient and ecological to expand local energy, water, food and sewage networks than increase the capacity of regional networks. We want to use the vacant lots in the city for experimenting in this kind of more autonomous and self-sufficient ways of living. The KasKantine is like a self sustainable ship that can land anywhere with a surface of 10x30m2, even on a floating structure.
So how do we arrange our own electricity, heating and water?
