About  [Edit]

CopperWiki is an open collaboration platform for people seeking sustainable living choices. It is based on the twin aspects of awareness and choice.

 

CopperWiki gives us choices for living a healthy, responsible and sustainable life. Most of us are aware of the importance of conscious living and the urgency of making this concept a way of life. The CopperWiki world informs, encourages, and shares the best practices for living responsibly as individuals, community, society, nation and as a planet. It is a fast conductor for information—which otherwise exists piecemeal at various places.

 

CopperWiki is all about creating awareness

 

  • Awareness about existing practices and products; their benefits and harmful impact.
  • Awareness about choices.
  • Awareness about effectiveness of various options.
  • Awareness about myths and facts.
  • Awareness about traditional knowledge.
  • Awareness about the impact of our actions.
  • Awareness about dying species, depleting resources, deteriorating environment and disappearing cultures, traditions and art forms.

It questions the established practices of our time

  • Research is conducted to see impact of existing products.
  • Research is done to find the efficacy of the existing practices.
  • What do experts say in this regard?
  • What do the non-conventional schools of thought say about it?
  • Do these products and practices deliver the promised results?
  • What is their impact on us, our planet and our environment?

It informs the reader about the choices available

  • What are the choices available to us?
  • What is the positive and negative impact of these choices on us/our environment and our planet?
  • Why are people choosing these options?
  • What can we do as individuals and communities to protect the dying species, depleting resources, deteriorating environment and disappearing cultures, traditions and art forms.
  • If we ignore this, what do we stand to lose as individuals, self and society – the impact on us and the environment at large?

Best practices of our times

  • What are the best practices being followed in various parts of the world?
  • What are the benefits of these practices?
  • What are the negative impacts of these practices?
  • Are there any factors ( local/ regional/seasonal/beliefs etc) that guided the adoption of these best practices in a particular area/areas.
