Ekoloki

Ekoloki is a fictional coastal municipality in the archipelago region of Arin. It is situated on the main island of Loka, with a temperate maritime climate and varied landscapes that include wetlands, forests and a short, sheltered harbor.

Founded in 1903 as a cooperative devoted to sustainable forestry and fisheries, Ekoloki evolved into a self-governing town that emphasizes environmental planning. In the late 20th century, it expanded to embrace renewable energy and green building practices.

Geographically, Ekoloki covers about 72 square kilometers and includes protected wetlands, river deltas and hills. The municipality pursues biodiversity preservation, flood resilience, and low-emission transport through land-use zoning and ecological restoration projects.

Governance is a mayor-council system within the Nordic Coast Province. The economy centers on ecotourism, organic farming, aquaculture, and small-scale manufacturing. Local institutions include the Institute for Environmental Studies and a Green Finance Forum that funds community projects.

The population is around 12,500, with a mix of long-time residents and newcomers attracted by sustainable living opportunities. The town supports several cultural events, including the annual Ekoloki Green Festival, craft markets, and a community boat-builders network.

Infrastructure emphasizes cycling and public transit, with a regional rail stop, a passenger ferry, and extensive coastal bike lanes. Education consists of primary and secondary schools and satellite programs affiliated with the Institute for Environmental Studies.

Ekoloki is commonly cited in discussions of municipal sustainability as a fictional example illustrating integrated land use, community ownership, and renewable energy integration.
