Collaborative projects - Envisioning

So I'm a skilled person, having recognised qualifications in say, accountancy, procurement, or engineering. I'm really psyched about development work, but I have a busy life so I can only devote say, four hours a week to project. What could I do with that time?

Imagine a webpage devoted to say, building a school. This could be split into parts and smaller parts and smaller parts - until you get to individual working units fairly small in size (say 1-4 hours). Any one person…

Algenol

Ethanol is already part of our automotive fuel mix, and could replace our current fuel system relatively easily. Ethanol is produced by various biological processes and is currently made mainly from corn and sugar cane. The the project's green credentials and sustainability are obvious (think carbon capture), unfortunately, these production processes have a…

My bright idea

So my research project last year was about bringing light to a small village in India. I didn't actually complete it but I made some progress.

You see the problem in India is not so much power availability as security. It's available at obscure hours and very unpredictably. This makes working at night particularly difficult, and can effect such simple tasks as cooking, using the toilet, or studying. My problem was to create some appropriate technology that would improve safety…

A meal of the future

My meal of the future will be the only 'meal' of my day. Diminishing land availability and Increasing crop efficiency has meant that most of my food comes from the local algae farm in the form of processed dietary supplement bars. But once a day I will be able to enjoy a 'real' meal - a misnomer because meat is too expensive for all but royalty and exotic fruit is no longer available now that rising oil prices have extinguished foreign trade. No, by and large I have one meal of pasta with maybe… Continue

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
