My #fediforum #lcf2025 crossover is going to be chaotic for me but ultimately so cool. My first workshop session is the Climate Misinformation Fishbowl and Workshop.

It occurs to me that we need to grab on to the #Fediwall client and pretty it up (marketing wise, not necessarily UX) and start letting orgs and agencies open a view (“the fishbowl”) into their own curated fediverse.

I’m setting up a #climate and #sustainability focused wall to show off this next hour.

#Sustainability policy is often portrayed negatively. Other approaches are necessary and can yield better results that will be welcomed by the majority. This work carried out at @RIFS shows the way forward.

Today the Web Sustainability Guidelines (WSG) became a First Public Draft Note.

This specification defines web-focused guidelines that use planetary, people, and prosperity principles (the PPP approach) throughout the decision-making process, allowing users to minimize their environmental impact in various way.

If you live in, own, or are otherwise connected to a multi-family residential property in the city of #LosAngeles with a grass lawn and would like to see it converted to a 100% #NativePlant yard with water capture features, this could be your opportunity.

The LA Neighborhood Council #Sustainability Alliance is now taking funding applications. Deadline is November 15. Details in link.

It's called 'The Image at the End of the World: Communities of practice redefining technology on a damaged Earth'. In it I describe communities which give voice and shape to different definitions and roles for technology within the polycrisis: permacomputing, computing within limits, collapse informatics, salvage computing, slow tech, redundant technology, low-tech, feminist technology, convivial computing, disability driven development and more.
