I want to start a project to help people work together with the environment.

We do the hard part:
Open a farm
Breed the Animals
Start the company

And everyone else just buys animals that they need, all would be for sale in BTC:
Quote
Ex:
Drangonfly eggs to be released into town ponds, to eat mosquitos and similar pests.

Guinea Chickens, for eggs. Also for their "watch dog" qualities, as in, Guinea chickens will alert you when someone that is not from the neighborhood, or a new animal is around. They also eat ants, TICKS & spiders. So they are pretty good animals to have around.

Bats, and birds. And fruit trees (and cactuses like "saguaro", which grow to be over 50 foot tall and live longer than humans) that grow well in New Mexico (like Pears, Apples & Peaches) to feed them. Bat guano can also be used for many things. And both animals eat bugs that are pests.

We will have a rabbit farm to feed both humans and any pets, while providing fertilizer.

This is just a few of the ideas that will be presented, so that we can live in a near perfect eco-system. And we can sell the eggs from the dragonflies and chickens, as well as the guano from the bats and the fruit from the trees, on the internet and at market.

Nice list. I've been examining the subject of sustainable farming. Soon I'll start my own experiment with all the essential plants (only).

Would you care to share some of your resources used? (links, pdf, books)?

thanks

Just curious -- in what area are you located? A good friend of mine is thinking about accepting bitcoin for his hydroponic veggie gardening building service, and seems like you might have some overlap that could make it worthwhile to work together.

I'm in Colorado, but would like to do this in New Mexico.

Farm in CO and grow Hemp and I'm in.  Start an IPO and share holders earn profit from the sales of harvested Hemp.

It can be very lucrative.

Quote
Researchers found that farmers in the state of Colorado alone could see between $220 to $605 in net profits per acre of hemp. Adjusted for inflation using the consumer price index, those 1998 dollars would actually be worth $310 and $854 today, although the study’s authors note that variables in supply and demand for hemp could change that valuation.

95 acres X $310 = $29,450
95 acres X $854 = $81,130

Apparently the average is 3 harvests in a year.  Resulting in $88,350 (@ $310/acre) to $243,390 (@ $854/acre) net profit annually.

An interesting interview with one of the first Colorado farmers.

Me too!  Or we could just grow marijuana, since that is legal here.

Start an IPO and share holders earn profit from the sales of harvested Hemp.

Oh now here I'm not sure what you mean.  If you are suggesting a bitcoin IPO that is illegal in Colorado and every other state as far as I can tell.  Just because it's not money doesn't mean you can avoid the security regulators.  Now if you want to wait for the crowd source funding option from the JOBS ACT to kick in I'm all in again.  But I can't be involved in any situation where people are publicly asking for bitcoin or cash to start a project unless that asking organization is completely licensed or allowed to ask for that money.  

* Viceroy done ranting about securities laws and how it's illegal to ask people for money and thinks I' don't care what people think of Obama that he signed the JOBS ACT crowdfunding law in 2012 makes him one and the same as god as far as Viceroy is concerned.

Ahh,  yea I don't know anything about the financial stuff.   So basically there is no legal way to raise capital besides a bank?

securities laws are very serious and complicated.  in America you can ask friends and family for money but nobody else.  The law is designed to protect retirees from unscrupulous salesmen.  If you borrow bitcoin and promise to pay it back you are probably breaking the law... in America.

I know google, however I believe that you can get really good sources of information from people with actual experience on any given subject. It's quite possible to miss some good books, etc when searching on the internets only ;-)

I'm just saying, since we already have the subjects listed, you can easily learn more by typing it into Google.
That's what sucks about Google, you have to know what you want to know.
