<p><strong>Context</strong><br />UK Chief Scientist, Sir David King asserted in April 2006 that a C3° warming is now<br />inevitable (between 2070-2100). If this projection is correct it would bring about the following:<br />A permanent El Nino accompanied by major changes in the weather worldwide.<br />The total disappearance of the Greenland ice sheet<br />Major increases in extreme weather events<br />Major changes in ocean currents will totally transform the climate of Northern Europe<br />Rising sea levels heading towards 5m (ratio is 1m rise : 100m ingression) this level being<br />reached within 100-200 years<br />The collapse of many rainforests (with the Amazon being especially at risk)<br />The death of tropic coral reefs in the next 30 years<br />The spread of existing deserts in Africa, Australia and Western USA<br />Reductions in global food production, causing an additional 400 million people to experience<br />famine<br />World Bank and International Red Cross figures now suggest there will be up to 200 million<br />environmental refugees within thirty to fifty years. Bangladesh is expected to be the<br />source of a quarter of these.<br />Major water shortages in eg Western South America, Africa and Australia with a significant<br />increase in conflicts related to water resources<br />The extinction between 30-50% of global biodiversity<br />An increase in vector borne diseases<br />Increases in human and animal death from heat stress<br /><strong>The Boonah C3° + Outlook</strong><br /><strong>Water and Rainfall</strong><br />The amount of rainfall may or may not decrease dramatically, however, the availability of<br />water in exposed water courses, storage and biota will significantly reduce due to evaporation<br />from increased temperatures. Additionally, the rain that comes is likely to come less<br />frequently and in extreme weather events. A pattern of drought and then extreme weather<br />is very probable. The loss of soil moisture will be extremely serious and we can assume<br />that the carrying capacity of the land (stock and vegetation) will reduce by perhaps 50%<br />or more.<br />The ability to collect and store water in closed systems will become continually more<br />important.<br /><strong>Biodiversity: Loss and Migration</strong><br />Heat and reduced soil moisture will either, or both, take flora and fauna outside their zone<br />of temperature tolerance or deprive them of the level of water they need to survive. Major<br />losses of native and domesticated animals, native and introduced trees, plants, animals<br />and some insects will occur. What is possible is that these losses will rupture numbers of<br />food chains causing breakdown of ecologies with currently unrecognised consequences.<br /><strong>Fire</strong><br />Heat, drought, reduced soil moisture and high winds will all combine to increase fire dangers<br />substantially.<br /><strong>Extreme Weather Events</strong><br />Storms will become more intense in the area, this implies: high, even cyclonic, winds; flash<br />flood, hail and droughts will intensify. The biggest continual problem will be heat.<br />The Positives<br />The greater the ability to adapt, the greater the quality of the new life.<br />The altitude and seasonal variations of the town make geothermal design strategies for<br />building design and energy a real possibility.</p>',

<p>Jury Report - <br />This is a highly qualitative response to the Ideas Competition brief offering positive aspirations for the social, cultural, economic and environmental evolution of the subtropical coastal city over coming decades and beyond, using the Evandale site as a catalyst.</p>
<p>Examination of the submission reveals a nuanced outcome that is embedded in responsive communities and local distinctiveness. The importance of an identity based on the lifestyle advantages provided by the location’s natural characteristics is taken into account at a profound level. The result is an approach that provides strong ideas for ‘casting the city of the Gold Coast into a positions of global leadership’ in achieving long term care of community and place. Rather than spectacle and short-lived drama, this submission recognizes the symbolic values of the site and offers a plausible re-imagining of the Gold Coast city of the future that includes and celebrates the current city.</p>
<p>A conceptual mosaic accommodates future challenges including certain inundation, cultural diversification and reorganized urban patterns that include food production and knowledge industries. The submission demonstrates the authors’ knowledge of the cultural and creative life of the Gold Coast community and proposes ideas for two new kinds of cultural institution: a multiversity and an inter-cultural resort.</p>
<p>This submission adds valuable concepts to the dialogue regarding visions for Evandale and the Gold Coast City’s future. It presents the possibilities of innovative thinking, and suggests actions for directing the incremental changes necessary for transforming the mental map of the city for residents and visitors.</p>

The submission demonstrates the authors’ knowledge of the cultural and creative life of the Gold Coast community and proposes ideas for two new kinds of cultural institution: a multiversity and an inter-cultural resort.</p>
<p>This submission adds valuable concepts to the dialogue regarding visions for Evandale and the Gold Coast City’s future. It presents the possibilities of innovative thinking, and suggests actions for directing the incremental changes necessary for transforming the mental map of the city for residents and visitors.</p>

<p>The recent construction of the Wivanhoe Dam turned the Brisbane River into a long estuary andprovided confidence to build housing on land that had a history of flooding. Much of this was flooded in 2011.</p>
<p>This project explores the possibilities of retaining population through localised increases in density by moving houses in a medium density form, to the edges of the alluvium, above flood waters. The soils can then be again considered for a productive ecosystem which will form a focus for community, learning and commercial transactions.</p>

<p><strong>Context</strong><br />UK Chief Scientist, Sir David King asserted in April 2006 that a C3° warming is now<br />inevitable (between 2070-2100). If this projection is correct it would bring about the following:<br />A permanent El Nino accompanied by major changes in the weather worldwide.<br />The total disappearance of the Greenland ice sheet<br />Major increases in extreme weather events<br />Major changes in ocean currents will totally transform the climate of Northern Europe<br />Rising sea levels heading towards 5m (ratio is 1m rise : 100m ingression) this level being<br />reached within 100-200 years<br />The collapse of many rainforests (with the Amazon being especially at risk)<br />The death of tropic coral reefs in the next 30 years<br />The spread of existing deserts in Africa, Australia and Western USA<br />Reductions in global food production, causing an additional 400 million people to experience<br />famine<br />World Bank and International Red Cross figures now suggest there will be up to 200 million<br />environmental refugees within thirty to fifty years. Bangladesh is expected to be the<br />source of a quarter of these.<br />Major water shortages in eg Western South America, Africa and Australia with a significant<br />increase in conflicts related to water resources<br />The extinction between 30-50% of global biodiversity<br />An increase in vector borne diseases<br />Increases in human and animal death from heat stress<br /><strong>The Boonah C3° + Outlook</strong><br /><strong>Water and Rainfall</strong><br />The amount of rainfall may or may not decrease dramatically, however, the availability of<br />water in exposed water courses, storage and biota will significantly reduce due to evaporation<br />from increased temperatures. Additionally, the rain that comes is likely to come less<br />frequently and in extreme weather events. A pattern of drought and then extreme weather<br />is very probable. The loss of soil moisture will be extremely serious and we can assume<br />that the carrying capacity of the land (stock and vegetation) will reduce by perhaps 50%<br />or more.<br />The ability to collect and store water in closed systems will become continually more<br />important.<br /><strong>Biodiversity: Loss and Migration</strong><br />Heat and reduced soil moisture will either, or both, take flora and fauna outside their zone<br />of temperature tolerance or deprive them of the level of water they need to survive. Major<br />losses of native and domesticated animals, native and introduced trees, plants, animals<br />and some insects will occur. What is possible is that these losses will rupture numbers of<br />food chains causing breakdown of ecologies with currently unrecognised consequences.<br /><strong>Fire</strong><br />Heat, drought, reduced soil moisture and high winds will all combine to increase fire dangers<br />substantially.<br /><strong>Extreme Weather Events</strong><br />Storms will become more intense in the area, this implies: high, even cyclonic, winds; flash<br />flood, hail and droughts will intensify. The biggest continual problem will be heat.<br />The Positives<br />The greater the ability to adapt, the greater the quality of the new life.<br />The altitude and seasonal variations of the town make geothermal design strategies for<br />building design and energy a real possibility.</p>',

'content' => '<p>Gold Coast City Council recently held an 'Ideas Competition' to focus exploration of the future of the Cultural and Civic heart of the fast growing and ever changing city of the Gold Coast. The jury reviewed fifty-six conforming schemes.</p>
<p>The jury’s assessment was lead by the vision, objectives and scope expressed in the competition document.</p>
<p>The jury considered how the resulting ideas and propositions could drive wider discussion and provoke, inform and inspire public debate.</p>
<p>Gall & Medek and QCA team’s submission was considered to best illustrate the issues to be faced given the predicted changes to potential flood levels in the near future. Its vision was largely conceptual, so was considered separate from the winner by some distance.</p>
<p>Click on the link below for more detail.<strong><br /><a href="/resource_files/C4C4_Text.pdf" target="_blank">Supporting Document</a> </strong></p>
<p>Jury Report - <br />This is a highly qualitative response to the Ideas Competition brief offering positive aspirations for the social, cultural, economic and environmental evolution of the subtropical coastal city over coming decades and beyond, using the Evandale site as a catalyst.</p>
<p>Examination of the submission reveals a nuanced outcome that is embedded in responsive communities and local distinctiveness. The importance of an identity based on the lifestyle advantages provided by the location’s natural characteristics is taken into account at a profound level. The result is an approach that provides strong ideas for ‘casting the city of the Gold Coast into a positions of global leadership’ in achieving long term care of community and place. Rather than spectacle and short-lived drama, this submission recognizes the symbolic values of the site and offers a plausible re-imagining of the Gold Coast city of the future that includes and celebrates the current city.</p>
<p>A conceptual mosaic accommodates future challenges including certain inundation, cultural diversification and reorganized urban patterns that include food production and knowledge industries. The submission demonstrates the authors’ knowledge of the cultural and creative life of the Gold Coast community and proposes ideas for two new kinds of cultural institution: a multiversity and an inter-cultural resort.</p>
<p>This submission adds valuable concepts to the dialogue regarding visions for Evandale and the Gold Coast City’s future. It presents the possibilities of innovative thinking, and suggests actions for directing the incremental changes necessary for transforming the mental map of the city for residents and visitors.</p>

If this projection is correct it would bring about the following:<br />A permanent El Nino accompanied by major changes in the weather worldwide.<br />The total disappearance of the Greenland ice sheet<br />Major increases in extreme weather events<br />Major changes in ocean currents will totally transform the climate of Northern Europe<br />Rising sea levels heading towards 5m (ratio is 1m rise : 100m ingression) this level being<br />reached within 100-200 years<br />The collapse of many rainforests (with the Amazon being especially at risk)<br />The death of tropic coral reefs in the next 30 years<br />The spread of existing deserts in Africa, Australia and Western USA<br />Reductions in global food production, causing an additional 400 million people to experience<br />famine<br />World Bank and International Red Cross figures now suggest there will be up to 200 million<br />environmental refugees within thirty to fifty years. Bangladesh is expected to be the<br />source of a quarter of these.<br />Major water shortages in eg Western South America, Africa and Australia with a significant<br />increase in conflicts related to water resources<br />The extinction between 30-50% of global biodiversity<br />An increase in vector borne diseases<br />Increases in human and animal death from heat stress<br /><strong>The Boonah C3° + Outlook</strong><br /><strong>Water and Rainfall</strong><br />The amount of rainfall may or may not decrease dramatically, however, the availability of<br />water in exposed water courses, storage and biota will significantly reduce due to evaporation<br />from increased temperatures. Additionally, the rain that comes is likely to come less<br />frequently and in extreme weather events. A pattern of drought and then extreme weather<br />is very probable. The loss of soil moisture will be extremely serious and we can assume<br />that the carrying capacity of the land (stock and vegetation) will reduce by perhaps 50%<br />or more.<br />The ability to collect and store water in closed systems will become continually more<br />important.<br /><strong>Biodiversity: Loss and Migration</strong><br />Heat and reduced soil moisture will either, or both, take flora and fauna outside their zone<br />of temperature tolerance or deprive them of the level of water they need to survive. Major<br />losses of native and domesticated animals, native and introduced trees, plants, animals<br />and some insects will occur. What is possible is that these losses will rupture numbers of<br />food chains causing breakdown of ecologies with currently unrecognised consequences.<br /><strong>Fire</strong><br />Heat, drought, reduced soil moisture and high winds will all combine to increase fire dangers<br />substantially.<br /><strong>Extreme Weather Events</strong><br />Storms will become more intense in the area, this implies: high, even cyclonic, winds; flash<br />flood, hail and droughts will intensify. The biggest continual problem will be heat.<br />The Positives<br />The greater the ability to adapt, the greater the quality of the new life.<br />The altitude and seasonal variations of the town make geothermal design strategies for<br />building design and energy a real possibility.</p>',

'content' => '<p>Gold Coast City Council recently held an 'Ideas Competition' to focus exploration of the future of the Cultural and Civic heart of the fast growing and ever changing city of the Gold Coast. The jury reviewed fifty-six conforming schemes.</p>
<p>The jury’s assessment was lead by the vision, objectives and scope expressed in the competition document.</p>
<p>The jury considered how the resulting ideas and propositions could drive wider discussion and provoke, inform and inspire public debate.</p>
<p>Gall & Medek and QCA team’s submission was considered to best illustrate the issues to be faced given the predicted changes to potential flood levels in the near future. Its vision was largely conceptual, so was considered separate from the winner by some distance.</p>
<p>Click on the link below for more detail.<strong><br /><a href="/resource_files/C4C4_Text.pdf" target="_blank">Supporting Document</a> </strong></p>
<p>Jury Report - <br />This is a highly qualitative response to the Ideas Competition brief offering positive aspirations for the social, cultural, economic and environmental evolution of the subtropical coastal city over coming decades and beyond, using the Evandale site as a catalyst.</p>
<p>Examination of the submission reveals a nuanced outcome that is embedded in responsive communities and local distinctiveness. The importance of an identity based on the lifestyle advantages provided by the location’s natural characteristics is taken into account at a profound level. The result is an approach that provides strong ideas for ‘casting the city of the Gold Coast into a positions of global leadership’ in achieving long term care of community and place. Rather than spectacle and short-lived drama, this submission recognizes the symbolic values of the site and offers a plausible re-imagining of the Gold Coast city of the future that includes and celebrates the current city.</p>
<p>A conceptual mosaic accommodates future challenges including certain inundation, cultural diversification and reorganized urban patterns that include food production and knowledge industries. The submission demonstrates the authors’ knowledge of the cultural and creative life of the Gold Coast community and proposes ideas for two new kinds of cultural institution: a multiversity and an inter-cultural resort.</p>
<p>This submission adds valuable concepts to the dialogue regarding visions for Evandale and the Gold Coast City’s future. It presents the possibilities of innovative thinking, and suggests actions for directing the incremental changes necessary for transforming the mental map of the city for residents and visitors.</p>

<p>The recent construction of the Wivanhoe Dam turned the Brisbane River into a long estuary andprovided confidence to build housing on land that had a history of flooding. Much of this was flooded in 2011.</p>
<p>This project explores the possibilities of retaining population through localised increases in density by moving houses in a medium density form, to the edges of the alluvium, above flood waters. The soils can then be again considered for a productive ecosystem which will form a focus for community, learning and commercial transactions.</p>
