Ecovillage housing problem

- export tax on fossil Carbon, to fund:

    - health and education
    - renewable energy R&D and manufacturing subsidies/credits
    - just green transition to a circular bioeconomy

       - a biochar industry eg. https://anzbig.org/

       - a hemp industry https://australianhempcouncil.org.au/

       - a bamboo industry https://bamboo.org.au/

       - a micro algae (?peak industry body) and macro algae industry

          https://www.seaweedalliance.org.au/

    - plastic waste problem

       https://acor.org.au/

       -Continuous Microwave Assisted Pyrolysis (CMAP)

         https://www.resynergi.com/

       - deploy the CMAP modules at the waste stream (just like the Flame Cap 'Algorithm' Panel Kiln for biomass)

       - logistically efficient with lower transport Carbon footprint than central recycling depots

       - could be self-powered from syngas heat exchanged to a Stirling engine for electricity

       - large hydrocarbon chains broken into monomers for new plastic  + cleaner burning Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel

       - plastic char ?for advanced Carbon materials

    - ecovillages for homeless people made from hempcharcrete https://ecovillage.org/

        - hempcharcrete
           - hemp bast fibre
           - hemp straw Biochar
           - microalgae->CaCO3->C negative lime
           - water

            ->load bearing blocks
       - built on reclaimed or marginal land
       - 3 levels maximum 

       - North facing, passive solar, high thermal mass

       - outfitted with appropriate technology

         - largely self-sufficient for power, water, sewage, food, medicine etc.

       - remote training (credits) and working possible if distance to workplaces a problem
       - subsidised training and skills development for homeless people to build their own ecovillage/paradise

         - possible flow on work in the subsidised plant-based ecovillage building industry
