Conscious Stewardship of Our Biosphere – One Community Weekly Progress Update #148

Conscious stewardship of our biosphere has never been more needed or possible. Never in the history of humanity have we had such an amazing ability to globally collaborate on this and share ideas and solutions. Through open source sustainability and consciously living and creating for The Highest Good of All, we have the ability to steward and regenerate our one shared planet for us and all future generations too. This is what One Community is doing:

• Here’s our project overview
• Here’s our world-change methodology
  
• Here’s how this becomes self-replicating
• Here’s how we are open source and free-sharing all the do-it-yourself designs

ONE COMMUNITY WEEKLY UPDATE DETAILS

HIGHEST GOOD EDUCATION PROGRESS

One Community is facilitating conscious stewardship of our biosphere through Highest Good education that is for all ages, applicable in any environment, adaptable to individual needs, far exceeds traditional education standards, and more fun for both the teachers and the students:

• • • Learn about the components: Education open source hub
    • Learn how the components work together: How to use the Education for Life Program
      

This last week the core team transferred another 25% of the written content for the Community Lesson Plan to the website, as you see here. This lesson plan is purposed to teach all subjects, to all learning levels, in any learning environment, using the central theme of “Community” and it is now 75% complete on the site.

Behind the scenes, we finished the final written portion of the Community Lesson Plan.

We also completed another 25% of the mindmap for the Winter Lesson Plan, bringing that to 75% complete, as you see here.

HIGHEST GOOD FOOD PROGRESS

One Community is facilitating conscious stewardship of our biosphere through Highest Good food that is more diverse, more nutritious, locally grown and sustainable, and part of our open source botanical garden model to support and share bio-diversity:

• • • Learn about the structures: Hoop House Hub | Aquapini & Walipini Open Source Hub
    • See what we’ll be growing: Gardens & Hoop Houses | Large-scale Structures | Food Forest | TA

This last week for our Food Self-sufficiency Transition Plan page, the core team added the nutritional and caloric targets for all the major food categories that Naturopathic Doctor Matt Marturano (creator of the COHERENT model for comprehensive digestive health) calculated, which you can see here:

HIGHEST GOOD HOUSING PROGRESS

One Community is facilitating conscious stewardship of our biosphere through Highest Good housing that is artistic and beautiful, more affordable, more space efficient, lasts longer, DIY buildable, and constructed with healthy and sustainable materials:

• • • Learn about: Our Upcoming Crowdfunding Campaign
    • Learn about the different village models: 7 Sustainable Village Models
    • Visit the open source portals for the first two: Earthbag Village OS Hub | Straw Bale Village OS Hub

This last week the core team put another 10 hours into the behind-the-scenes revision for the Footers, Foundations and Flooring page for the crowdfunding campaign we are developing. This week’s focus was finishing a huge update of the AutoCAD for the footer, foundation and flooring and updates to section 11 and 12 steps of the content rewrite, both of which can be seen in this image. We’d say we are now 65% complete with this total update and rewrite behind the scenes.

Also behind the scenes, we added an additional 7% of edits and content to the Tree House Village (Pod 7) presentation begun by the Intern Team over the summer, including adding live hyperlinks to our website. You can see an example of this work here. The updates to the presentation are now approximately 92% finished and the presentation will be released on our website when the revision process is 100% complete.

In addition to this, and working on the Tree House Village (Pod 7), Jesika Rohrbach (Architectural Drafter, Designers, and 3-D Modeler) started adding the aesthetic details and floor plan updates you see here. These updates include adding a Victorian look and increasing space efficiency, starting with the communal kitchen and social space layouts.

Shilcy Augustine (Architect) also continued developing the Compressed Earth Block Village (Pod 4) classroom and other shared community spaces, which you can see here. This week’s focus was on adding furniture and storage areas to the classroom spaces.

Dean Scholz, Architectural Designer, further developed what’s necessary for us to create quality Cob Village (Pod 3) renders. Here is update 3.0 of this work that focused mostly on finding and creating textures for the two North wings.

DUPLICABLE CITY CENTER PROGRESS

One Community is facilitating conscious stewardship of our biosphere through a Duplicable and Sustainable City Center that is LEED Platinum certified/Sustainable, can feed 200 people at a time, provide laundry for over 300 people, is beautiful, spacious, and saves resources, money, and space:

• • • Learn about this building and it’s function: Duplicable City Center Open Source Hub

This week the core team continued the process of learning how to do our own renders for the Duplicable City Center. You can see here this work-in-progress covering faucets, wall lights, and counter top materials set up. Our written blog has links to the tutorial videos we are learning from.

Bupesh Seethala, Interior Designer, also built the complete pallet closet in AutoCAD as seen here, checking the details originally designed by the summer Intern Team against the recreation and updates by our core team, and then adding in additional construction details as necessary.

Iris Hsu (Industrial Designer), continued with these additional Pipe Couch designs for the Duplicable City Center library. The drawings you see here are her 7th generation drawings continuing development of the couch idea, continuing with a simplified design and angled and fixed seat back.

Behind the scenes Mike Hogan (Automation Systems Developer and Business Systems Consultant) developed this 2nd-generation design ideas for users to manually interface with the Control Systems through hardware built into the bed design. Here you see the inside and outside of the design for a removable and replaceable box with a micro-controller that would allow for easy bedside control of all key system elements in the room.

HIGHEST GOOD SOCIETY PROGRESS

One Community is facilitating conscious stewardship of our biosphere through a Highest Good society approach to living that is founded on fulfilled living, the study of meeting human needs, Community, and making a difference in the world:

• • • Read the Highest Good society overview: Highest Good Society
    • Learn about the model for fulfilled living and sharing: A Day in the Life
    • Learn about the 4 economic models: RBE | For-profit | Non-profit | Entrepreneurship
    • Learn about our open source community collaboration and management software: The Highest Good Network

This last week the core team continued our work on the Highest Good Network with Andrew Herman (Software Engineer and Core Member of Futurist Playground). What you see here is brainstorming and outlining on activity types and how to track and organize time and other data in a way that will be useful to dramatically different organizations, in a way that can be customized to diverse needs, but still be useful to the global collaboration of these organizations.
