COOP COAST is a design & research unit within the graduate diploma school of CSA*. Over the course of the academic year 2010/11 the studio is investigating the political, socioeconomic and spatial realities of coastal towns, both in Kent and across the English Channel. Oscillating between macro and micro scales, between urban and rural, temporal and typological conditions, the studio embraces strategic and activist design practices alike; and will explore the potential for cooperative action within the realms of regional design, programmatic urbanism and performative architecture.

Studio: Pauline Harris, Alasdair McNab, Joao Neves, Sarjay Patel, Benjamin Reay, Sara Resende, Migle Saltynite, Richard Saunders, Rhea Shepherd, Lawrence Sherwood, Hannah Wyatt & Gabor Stark

Roadmap 2050

Below is the link to the info-graphic response by OMA to the European energy agenda outlined by the European Climate Foundation.

They propose an interconnected energy network across the continent (and UK), playing to each country's climate strengths in order to reduce the requirement for fossil fuels - the ultimate goal is to eliminate reliance on oil-producing countries and drastically cut the amount of carbon emissions produced in Europe.

Also included is the 'Roadmap 2050' website which has a lot of further reading if you're interested.
