Forwarding the Evolution of Sustainability – One Community Weekly Progress Update #163

Forwarding the evolution of sustainability can be accelerated through open source sharing models for self-sufficient eco-villages. For maximum effect, it makes sense to include within these village models approaches for Highest Good foodenergy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economics design, social architecture, fulfilled living, and stewardship practices and more. We call this living and creating for The Highest Good of All:

This week’s focus was on continued insertion of backfill steps and steps for raising the poly instruction that are part of Section 10: Construction of Stem Walls and Dome. We also completed further edits of Section 13: Subterranean Exterior Ground Finish of Polyethylene Water Barrier and EPS Insulation. We additionally moved all new green-step headings into the Section 10 doc and inserted newly written narratives. We’d say we are now 80% complete with this total update and rewrite behind the scenes.
