I've been pondering #SolarPunk and #HopePunk ideas. One of the most impressive resources I have come across is the #AppropriateTechnologyLibrary - a giant collection of books that is everything you'd need to make a village or community go with minimal effort and access to basic tools and references on how to make more tools.

Has anyone else seen this before? It's about 14GB of microfiche scanned PDFs.

@ambientspace I was given a pirated copy many years back. There's a load of interesting stuff in there but it's very hard to search. Maybe the newer versions are easier

@ambientspace

Also the CD3WD Project run by Alex Weir:

As he was based in Zim, most of the farming papers are focused on the climatic conditions found in Africa, but the rest will be usable everywhere. 😁

The CD's could be found on one of the longest-running torrents on Pirate Bay. :D
