Ecovillages - Communities in Harmony
Ecovillages are intentional communities organized to be ecologically, economically and socially sustainable and harmonious. Size varies from a few dozen to over 100 inhabitants, with some larger communities (as many as 2000) existing as networks of smaller sub-communities. Ecovillagers are united by common values and the common goal of minimal ecological impact and maximal positive community effect.

For more information about ecovillages, check out these two sites and the video links below.
