The Building Blocks of Ecological Living – One Community Weekly Progress Update #170

The time has come to open source the building blocks of ecological living and create a sustainable planet that meets the needs of all of humanity. The technology and ability to globally collaborate already exist, all that remains is to bring together those who share the necessary desire and willingness to do the work and build the open source foundation. One Community is doing this and we call the process living and creating for The Highest Good of All:

HIGHEST GOOD HOUSING PROGRESS

Highest Good housing, cob construction, earthbag construction, straw bale construction, earthship construction, subterranean construction, sustainable homes, eco-homesOne Community is creating the building blocks of ecological living 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:

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 on section 10, where we continued editing procedural steps 1-41, and added new video inserts along with changing some existing video titles to reflect the modified narratives. We also wrote the narratives for steps 36, 38, 39, and 40. We’d say we are now 87% complete with this total update and rewrite behind the scenes.

Mike Hogan (Automation Systems Developer and Business Systems Consultant) and Lucas Tsutsui da Silva(4th-year Computer Engineering Student) and Jae then discussed more circuit design details and also how Dipti’s information could best be displayed on the AutoCAD for the Control Systems designs. What they come up with is important because it’ll be the format for all the villages and we’ll use it for the HVAC systems too.
