Transportation within the Ecosphere
No personal ownership of powered vehicles within the eco-sphere.
Pedal powered transport will be relied on throughout the ecosphere, even for special needs and public services where possible.
Transportation within the EcosphereTransport for businesses
Certain things around the ecosphere will require a powered form of trans-port, for things like transportation of heavy good or bulk goods, as well as transportation of bulk people or livestock.
For these situations electric vehicles will be implemented, relying heavily on solar power for operation.
“Roughly 90% of Japan's greenhouse gas emissions in fiscal year 2004 (definitely reported) were due to the industrial, transport, commercial, service”

Transportation within the EcosphereBike parking system
More convenient parking, users don’t need to worry about locking bikes up.
Users don’t need to worry about theft or vandalism.
Bike park keeps users bikes safe from weather damage.
Conveniently located at key locations around the campus.
The locations are all directly accessable from each other.
If lighting is used 5 hours a day, and a clock radio uses 100w a day, thats 350w p/day. With 4 people riding it would take just over an hour of riding a day each to provide enough power to support this. This is just on top of the
normal power supply of each house.
Average power produced p/hour by one bike
Average power used by a clock radio p/hour
Average power used by lighting p/hour p/house
Average power produced p/hour from two bikes
