摘要: It is possible within a bounded system, through manipulation of the built environment using novel combinations technology, overall system design, and process cycle management, to moderate increases in entropy for both energy matter with structurally coupled external environment. One example embodiment forms an engineered ecosystem, moderating eight primary systems - thermal atmospheric optimization, radiation controls, hydrological systems, material flows, provide homeostatic regulation cascading flows energy. Ideally system's symbiotic processes work reciprocity devolved autonomy form unity that balances resource use, reduces transport requirements, shortens cycles water, minerals, residual offers storage surplus reserves. This enables stable passive design where consideration inputs outputs, outputs never exceed inputs.
