@ sepen20: Wow, I am honoured and thank you.

Greets to all you CJ-readers,

Planting the forests almost finished!

Planting forests on the new islands in Waterworld is almost finished (picture: 1). It was the biggest project ever undertaken by Waterworld. Not only because the carefully chosen spots to plant forest (attached to the shorelines). Also because the infrastructure had to be planed in. When the infrastructure is not preplanned it will destroy the forest as I learned in previous city’s. The planing of the infrastructure in Waterworld is a painstaking slow process because most of the time its made underground tunnelled in. So not only the connections to other islands are made by tunnels (picture: 2). Also inside the city the highway, rail and monorail are mostly underground and come out when needed for a station, turn, entrance or exit. This way the pollution caused by rail or highway are put to a minimum. You can now see the tunnel entrances, exits, turns and stations very good because there are no buildings yet (picture: 3, 4, 5).

Make energy out of the motion of cars and trains inside tunnels

Recently the engineers of Waterworld found a way to make energy out of the motion of cars and trains inside tunnels.  This way the tunnels are self supporting so that the lights will never go out inside. The generated electricity in the tunnels not only make the lights glow they turn on big air vents that suck the polluted air out of the tunnels. When the polluted air is sucked out it also will be cleaned by a air filtering process (picture: 6).

Waterworld are becoming in a megaproject!!! In the real life It maybe costs millions of dollars and the enginering may be too hard, but the advantage of SC4 is the imagination. Great Job.
