Just learned about this sick feminist hacker group that made a technique for creating PCBs out of locally harvested clay instead of plastic! Ofc the PCBs will have to be pretty simple, but ill bet you could totally make an arduino with this!

Really want to test this out and do a workshop at Sandbox (our local hackerspace) if this works!

♻️ Google deletes net-zero pledge from sustainability website

Shizuoka’s traditional method of tea farming is sustainable, makes tea taste better and helps with biodiversity.

Die 17 Sustainable Development Goals der Vereinten Nationen schwebten für uns immer sehr weit oben in der fernen Weltklimapolitik. Die Broschüre "Punkten für das Gemeinwohl und die SDGs" hat uns die Konzepte in den Alltag heruntergeholt. (https://germany.econgood.org/tools/gemeinwohl-bilanz/)

Es ist sehr motivierend, wenn man die tägliche, unspektakuläre Arbeit als genossenschaftlicher Webhoster sinnvoll in ein umfassenderes Bild einordnen kann.
