Oooooh... I just came across this community from a #SolarPunk Reddit post. Contains such topics as #SolarCookers, #CompostingToilets, #PedalPoweredGenerators (one of my favorite topics), natural paints, vertical #gardens, and more...!

Posting this here so I don't forget about it, but also to share: Appropedia is a whole wiki devoted to sustainability projects, many of which can be easily accomplished by an individual or small organization (not to say that climate change responsibility falls on individuals). Found on the Solarpunk subreddit.

Tolocar started just weeks after the onset of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. This initiative aims not only to provide emergency relief, but also to foster a participatory innovation ecosystem for the socioeconomic recovery of Ukraine.

#Appropedia is a great collaborative knowledge base #wiki for #sustainability , but I find its current visual design a bit lacking, so lately I have been doodling some new #LogoDesign concepts with my phone. Thoughts? (Just #PixelArt sketches for now. Good #VectorGraphics apps for #Android needed!) #AppropediaNewLogo #MadeWith #dotpict #CreativeCommons #Typography

I'm a bit slow to the latest issue of Branch, the online magazine that adapts to the carbon intensity of your electricity grid.

Issue 4 is an #OpenClimate edition, applying #openness to #ClimateAction. From #Appropedia to #SolarPunk it embraces #slowness, hope, and the power of #openness

Trying to read up on libraries for OpenSCAD and found a wonderful rabbithole... :D

@BillySmith @derek @hydroponictrash Have you tried #appropedia , https://www.appropedia.org/Welcome_to_Appropedia ? ;)

@lex @MalthusJohn @valkyrie @phneutral

7. If you want to get into details, grant incentives for universities, spinoffs, startups to work on open projects and share them publicly, not only on some esoteric sub-page. https://crastina.se/ is doing some of this work, encouraging 3% of every grant to be spent on communication.

But seriously, it's not only startups that are innovative. We could get A LOT from universities contributing to #appropedia , #wikipedia , #OpenStreetMap and similar.

@MalthusJohn @lex those projects already exist, they're just not widespread!

https://www.appropedia.org/Recyclebot is an open source project from #appropedia , which also has a lot more materials on sustainability and appropriate technology.

fridge0, an off grid fridge. Not for everybody, of course, but good example of real innovation and research that MAKE sense https://fridge0.branchable.com/ #refrigeration #openHw #appropedia #appropriateTech #offTheGrid #resilience

@requiem I've been thinking about writing a Solarpunk story like that - "Want to know more about what characters are doing? here!"

In the meantime, Joshua Pearce made an illustrated novel like that to promote sustainability and open source solar panels: https://aditiandslick.tumblr.com/

In that youtube you also find the previous talk in that series from @emiliovelis, executive director of Appropedia, a wiki for sustainable projects. (Such a great resource!)

His topic: Share how you make = Documentation and Story telling, which is truly useful talk for any person working with knowledge:

@martijnreintjes did you know that @emiliovelis , the director of Appropedia is here on Mastodon?

We can make it a hashtag, #appropedia !

One of the biggest contributors, professor Joshua Pearce, wrote an illustrated #solarpunk story for kids: https://aditiandslick.tumblr.com/ and co-wrote https://www.appropedia.org/To_Catch_the_Sun book!

@LightHiker @ginevra I am actually the guy who is all about showing the existing solutions, especially from the Global South! At some point I created #solarpunkReporting to help inspire people with real ideas.

There are organizations like Global Innovation Gathering, networking hackers and activists from the Global South and helping them build sth.

There is #appropedia and a lot of similar projects.

We just dont hear about them in the mainstream.
