Revision as of 19:44, 7 September 2009
Hey Chris, what would you consider appro tech villages to be, a type of living collaboratory or vice versa? After this bioregionalist conference i was at this term makes a lot of sense... should we create a living collaboratory page?
-richard
- I don't know that term, but I'm interested - a page would be great! Bioregionalism also interesting. --Chriswaterguy 04:24, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

- Transition Penwith.
- Transition Falmouth.
- Transition Town Lewes.
- Transition Ottery St Mary.
- Transition Bristol.
- Transition Town Brixton.
- Transition Forest of Dean
Criteria are eg already present stress from climate change (increases popularity to make countries/villages AT), presence of ethnic populations, ...
Countries/villages may be converted while a documentary is made (eg as too done with "Planet Mechanics", the Scraphouse-project, ...)
sewage nutrients get lost vs tribal comm. let food nutrients recycle

- show cattle farming community -->not good -->high env. impact
- show Banjar -not good, swidden culture burns/destroys forest, also very inefficient; great swiddens, low yield
- show rice growing comm/vegan ?
- show Desana -->SE Columbia -very good, understand economy/carbon footprint/eco-impact --> restriction in hunting (to avoid stock depletion), heavily engaged in birth control, people with too much children are looked down upon
tell that "however" western innovation has given us fish farms, chicken farms/batteries, ... so western technology can be used to create more environmental systems (than even tribal communities approach) Tell that to this target we must work towards, combine meatless diet with technology
Next movie -communities (new age, new vrindaban, ...), earthships comm
-->
Finally, Mouvman Peyizan Papay Route de Bassin-Zim, Papaye, Hinche Haïti also has a AT village
Cheers, KVDP
