A while ago I set myself a task, to build out a vision for the future that I have been slowly crafting within my imagination. Through this process I've found many similarities with my own path and that of the solarpunk community. In so, I decided to start a blog where I can compile my worldbuilding notes, encourage myself to write more, and facilitate regarding topics of what a solarpunk future actually looks like.
Post Food Scarcity is the latest topic that I have explored. Taking a look into what a functional future looks like when we no longer have to worry about procuring food as a means of survival. Would love to hear other's thoughts on this subject!
Trying to add content on a regular basis, mainly to form good writing habits, but also to keep the flow of creative juices well.... flowing. Giving that the r/solarpunk is under black out, I'm not really too sure of other good places to share my ideas. If anyone would be willing to point me in a good direction when it comes to sharing content, I would be most appreciative!!
In any ways, thanks for allowing me to take up some of your time and hope you have a great day!!
I like this writing prompt/ thought exercise that you've proposed.
In your article, you mention the idea of a shared community kitchen, and it just kind of reminded me of experiences I've had at a regional "Burning Man"-like event.
Even though there are no food vendors on site, because most people follow the principle of radical self-reliance and gifting, there is always an abundance of very tasty food. Many times, I attended the event having brought freeze dried rations for myself, but only had to eat from my own stash a couple of times, and even then, mostly as a matter of choice.
I am sure that machine learning technologies are already at play in logistics and demand planning, and will only become moreso. I've read some opinions here and there that there should be a democratic element to demand planning, what do you think about that?
I feel like it was only a few years ago that I truly grasped the biodiversity of fruits. I love fruit, and I felt like I had explored many kinds of fruit, but I learned that in reality, I had only had the tiniest percentage of fruits that are out there. It definitely makes me want to be a fruit tourist.
Come. Let me fill your bliss
Are you offering me fruit, itchy?
I offer you whatever we have brewing in the kitchen https://whatistherainbowgathering.blogspot.com/2019/05/the-first-timers-practical-guide-to.html
Ah very cool :) Yeah I've heard of the rainbow gathering, as there's a lot of crossover between our communities. It'd certainly be neat to check out some time.
