In 500 years most humans have inhabited the oceans on huge man-made cities (e.g. Waterworld, expect advanced skyscrapers with climate control); allowing the land to be revitalized. Islais Creek and Glen Park Canyon will become a hikers paradise. A ferry/cruise ship will drop off hikers and tourist at Islais Landing where they will begin a 3 mile hike to the heart of Glen Canyon. People will get to experience what native plants and animals occupy the area.

- Make a promotional video of the tour, or Make a video of me walking the tour, or both.

Final Project Proposal

The majority of humans in 500 years are living in the oceans on man-made island structures. Therefore, there are fewer humans on the land which has allow the ecosystem to be restored and native plant and animal species return.

Plan of Action:
- Research what San Francisco used to look like 500 years ago.
- Research what kind of plants and animals used to live there and which ones are there now.
- Visualize past, present, and future species of plants and animals.

GPS Plants

I found this sign in the SF Botanical garden. I'm assuming they use GPS tracking to prevent people from stealing the plants. I'm not sure exactly how the GPS tracking chips are implemented. Something to look into.
