For a detailed and enthusiastic treatment of this theme, check out
_Bioshelters, Ocean Arks, City Farming: Ecology as the Basis for Design_ by
Nancy Jack Todd and John Todd of the New Alchemy Institute and Ocean Arks
International. ISBN:0-87156-814-4

They've built working prototypes of several of the projects they outline
(like the Sidewalk Aquaculture tanks, which were a long-time, very popular
