There are many ways to approach this project – some things to consider:
- The site should “sell” the concept and show the benefits of this
- This should not be about doing without or suffering because of it, it should be positive
- You could feature some products, you could just cover the concepts, you could provide “how to” information
- Consider advantages to the individual, the community, the world!
- The most important part of this challenge is to be creative in your concepts

- Prepare and present your project as a Slideshow concept presentation. Imagine that you are presenting this to potential investors
