We've done basic research on our islands in the last couple days, and have determined exactly what needs to be done to achieve our mission. We split the team up into four groups: groups tackling public policy, development of a village for permanent residency, environmental sensor systems, and preservation. I'm working on development of the village. Main concerns right now are fresh water (there's a spring and rainwater on the island, but we don't know how to harness it most efficiently), wastewater disposal systems, and in general a sustainable infrastructure.
