Transformational Eco-Human Progress – One Community Weekly Progress Update #131

Transformational eco-human progress is the movement of humanity towards the ecological mindset capable of creating a sustainable world. One Community is forwarding this movement through open source solutions combining sustainable models for food, energy, and housing with ecocentric models for fulfilled living, education, sustainable economics and earth stewardship. Putting these together as self-replicating teacher/demonstration hubs is what One Community calls living and creating for The Highest Good of All:

• 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 forwarding transformational eco-human progress 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 the first 50% of the written content for the Recreation and Relaxation 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 “Recreation and Relaxation.”

    • See what we’ll be growing: Gardens & Hoop Houses | Large-scale Structures | Food Forest | TA

HIGHEST GOOD HOUSING PROGRESS

One Community is forwarding transformational eco-human progress 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 continued what we hope will be the final revision of the Footers, Foundations and Flooring page for the upcoming crowdfunding campaign. This week included placement procedure of polyethylene, creating a more thorough step-by-step instruction guide for the stem and buttress wall construction, detailed narrative re-write for bailing twine tying and barbed wire installation, and adding corbeling data specifics. We’d say we’re now 30% complete with this behind-the-scenes revision.

We also updated the AutoCAD file for the Footers, Foundations and Flooring to include more and updated specifics, and also more colors, to make it easier to understand.
