This is an effort going on by several folks I have been following, some who are pioneers are Marcin Jacubowski, Ben Peterson, Alosha Lynov, Derrick Broze, Geoff Lawton, and Mike Reynolds.
I'd love to go to gatherings to share ideas of how to build strong self-sustaining communities. A trade and alternative currency network can be formed.
Big vision I would like to reward folks for turning in waste products into me on a local level so I may use them to make products.
It gets to around freezing in Winter but not much below. We usually never get snow. So still cold but no snow.
You're welcome down this season if you wanna come check it out my friend.

Ha Yes, thanks for the invite! You knew exactly where I was going with this question!
Marcin is the Open Ecology guy right? And Reynolds is earthship... I know some of the other names but a couple I will have to look up. Thanks
Yep Marcin is building open source technology and has developed a working model to educate other and keep developing new tools. He's looking for folks to become local collaborators as well. I can get you connected if you're interested. Yep Mike is the earth ship guy. Ben Peterson pioneered a technology called the wastebot that can convert most discarded plastics into usable diesel fuel. Geoff Lawton has pioneered a project to re-green the desert using permaculture techniques. Alosha is hosting workshops for building domes using aircrete and has learned from Mike and Geoff. Derrick has created a project to trt to link these self sufficient communities around the idea of agorism. Everyone has built communities around their projects. Exciting times. The evolution is not televised. You're welcome anytime my friend. Just holler at me when you're interested in coming.
Ah man, thanks! All those guys and what they're doing is giving me chills!!! I really love it and yes please connect me but perhaps not yet... I feel I need a little bit more time before I can dedicate myself to it.
