One thing that is important to consider is whether there is a permaculture analog in digital platforms, Yahoo! groups which is about making money and selling ads, or a site that is created by the community and not for profit with no ads. In other words, there is biological food and junk food. Similarly, there is the world created by community and a world created by privilege, by money, my VCs, etc. Just a thought.

Love to get feedback about the Yahoo site. They do have a 12 year head start in groupware, and there is much we can learn. Where is the site?

Paul, Thanks for the reference, the post below was actually from Laurie, I have been trying to get some of the SF group discussions onto the WE site, yet the yahoo site seems to work best for folks.
The Low Carbon Diet is a great reference as well, they have a great way of calculating one's footprint and ways to measure savings, check out this link. http://www.empowermentinstitute.net/lcd/index.html |

Benjamin: John Schaeffer at Real Goods has some very good stuff. I just ordered his new catalog wherein he gives some good metrics on home measures. But not on these specifically because they are more relative.

Hi Friends, does anyone know where I can find a good measuring tool/metrice to measure the savings a person would receive if they
a. Installed a Green Roof b. Used Solar rather than Grid Generated Power c. Harnessed Water on-site rather than truck in through municipal water lines? Thanks everyone! Laurie ljsmimosa@yahoo.com |
