I'm also for community solutions and I don't oppose this. The rich are unfortunately also part of the world, they should be utilized as much as anybody in this crisis. More so, arguably.

Oh my fuck, finally a rich person did something actually. I never thought I'd see the day.

My phone, a cheap Moto, has survived probably around 50 drops and falling into a tub. After years it still holds charge fine and I've made and sorted through (probably) hundreds of thousands of files of content with it. My current computer has also survived a lot and lasted longer than more expensive ones I've had previously. It's a cheap HP. I don't know if this is exactly "solarpunk" but it's technically low-footprint (comparative to industry standards) just because the tech lasts, even through hardship. I've also kept all my old tech and plan to recycle it after I've retrieved the data. Recycling is solarpunk, I think. I also have a vibrator that's lasted years, takes only one triple A battery, still works great. I intend to get rechargeable batteries soon. Battery waste is icky and battery recycling is tricky (because they're made of such hazardous materials). I'm hoping to get a solar roof installed but that's gonna take quite a bit of time especially since my country doesn't exactly have the greatest subsidies for residential solar.

No, I'm being upfront. If y'all really feel this strongly for beating around the bush, good luck getting anything done in time.

Big oil motherfuckers should get the guillotine.

Interesting guide. Thanks for sharing. A bit concerning the site doesn't have a soil testing guide anymore, though. The theories in the article let alone this subject itself kinda rely on soil science. Regardless, crop rotation is very important and should be utilized more in all farming. Monocropping is extremely damaging to the environment because it destroys soil diversity, which reduces nutrients and reduces the wildlife ecosystem involved in the process.

Hahaha, that's fucking awesome. Good on 'em. Break Shell. Break petrochemicals. Disgusting, nasty, lying abominations of industry.
