PROJECT EXPLANATION

This project has a scope so grand, that most individuals have a hard time comprehending it. It is based around the simple, prosaic idea of developing a list of low-tech, homemade style ideas for sustainability (the full gamut).

This ever-improving list will be posted on websites thruout the world
(http://bagelhole.hypermart.net/
cassandra project Alternative Survival Information, Resilient Communities Project) for starters. It will be ordered by function, alphabetically, and by region, to make accessibility for implementation as easy as pie. So that, individuals and groups will actually be able to make themselves and their neighborhoods self- sustainable by 2000. This project has no commercial aspect, but is simply humanitarian. There is an urgency with y2k imminent and a need for collaboration on the widest scope. This is a call to the best among us, to the best within us to lead the way, lay the groundwork, and savor to the fullest, global collaboration. Now as the self-imposed deadline approaches (Easter day) for the launch of the project on to websites, there is a need for good ideas to be submitted, and for people (collaborators) to help cull the many links I have for ideas, to get the project off to a good start, by making the list impressive. In conjunction with this, to augment and compliment this project is the hope and idea to collaborate in partnership either with or including gov't, business, and non-profits, the mass construction of large (10,000 sq.ft) synergistic, self-sustaining, solar-passive greenhouses in the model developed by Anna Edey and the New Alchemy Institute of Martha's Vineyard, Mass. in the 80's. Utilizing wasted, urban areas, possibly nat'l guard (for construction), P. Ziegler's, cutting edge, methods of growing, called "aeroponics", vertical gardening, with nutrient fed looped tubing. If any see the sense in this, and wish to be amongst the "early collaborators", e-mail me now, with how you would like to help. The time has come to transcend the dysfunctional element that has so long characterized the human family.
