Proposed Research: An ideal community for future (sustainable) living

1. Introduction

	Global warming

The issue brought me attention results from typhoon Mosake in Taiwan and Bushfire in Australia during 2009 which all results great lost in terms of a nation and individuals. Suddenly, many innocent people lost their fortune, family and assert which they spent all life to work on but all had gone just in few hours or few minutes.

My family brought some charity money to visit our friends who suffer from natural disasters, but, there are too many, our charity money is too humble for them to re-establish their home and their great lost. I start to think how I should do to really help them. Not only after some bad things happened such as those natural disasters globally, could we really do anything before ahead? Could we find fundamental solution which may change things differently so people will not suffer painful process regularly? 1.2 Happiness community The other factor brought me to this initial proposal is that, many of my friends whatever from western or eastern they share the similar wish that one day when they have enough money, they want to move to an countryside community where is small, where maybe unknown but where everyone know each other very well, help each other and all family stay together where they have their small vege garden or animal farm so they can eat in organic and healthy way. However, I start to think why we can not do it right know? Is that just a simple which, isn't  it ?

2. Literature Review

2.1 Sustainability

2.2 An ideal community 2.21 Eastern context: The great Harmony (from ancient Confucian) 2.22 Western context (Still working on)

3. Currently structure and phenomenon for our society

3.1 Global impact: Climate change

3.11 Sea level change Currently, 70% of major cities situated in coastal line. What is the consequence while the iceberg continues to melting and sea level is continuing to rise

•	Nations base in big continents •	Nations base in small Islands

3.12 Natural Disaster

•	Typhoon •	Earthquakes •	Bushfires

3.2 The unbalance phenomenon of Society, Economy, Environment After industrial revolution (19 century), it changes

3.21 Social structure

	More 2nd and 3rd service 	Decaying 1st primary  production

Mechanism instead human and animal 3.22 City structure: Urbanism / Environmental structure

	the big killer for our balance

Environmental issue 	Losing Natural reserve/trees/polluted hydrology system

	Increasing Carbon Dixon

3.22	Social issue People have to move more often than the past, its means we get more convince and choice but •	Declan: Family value •	Disappear :Three generation living together

Effects •	Single Family --> increased educational problem •	Rebel teenagers---> social problem Abortion rate, suricate rate, mental depression About 1 in 5 young people in Australia struggling in depression

3.23 Supply-Chian System •	Wall-mart effect •	Unsafe food / unhealthy food

4. Case study area: Australia (Western). Vs. Taiwan (Eastern)

•	Taiwan: Kaohsiung County : Melron •	Australia: Wingecarribee Shire: Southern Highlands

5. New theoretical Approach for an ideal community

•	New balance in terms of Social, Economical, environmental perspective •	New Scientific Mental funding apply to experimental approach

6. Discussion and Conclusion
