Self-sustainability:
- Through the use of open-source sharing, a simple set of solutions for home-use can allow the planet’s consumers to get off the the economic grid (reducing global debt in the immediate future and undermining corporate profit interests in resource scarcity). The self-sustainability is only a short term solution, and using built-in obsolescence to reduce reliance in the long term, will allow a smooth transition into a resource-abundant and shared resource society. The self-sustainability guide should include @home:
- energy solutions,
- water purification,
- water heating solutions,
- vertical farm solutions,
- health solutions
- carbon footprint reduction solutions,
- eco-friendly construction techniques and materials,
- and finally efficient waste recycling and/or disposal.

I know I blogged this earlier, but I’m sharing this again, because of time-zone differences, and because the concept is cool enough to warrant a 2nd round
Atelier DNA’s “Windstalk” project came in second in the Land Art Generator competition a contest sponsored by Madsar to identify the best work of art that generates renewable energy from a pool of international submissions.
The proposed design calls for 1,203 “stalks,” each 180-feet high with concrete bases that are between about 33- and 66-feet wide. The carbon-fiber stalks, reinforced with resin, are about a foot wide at the base tapering to about 2 inches at the top. Each stalk will contain alternating layers of electrodes and ceramic discs made from piezoelectric material, which generates a current when put under pressure. In the case of the stalks, the discs will compress as they sway in the wind, creating a charge.1 year ago | Notes | Reblog |

I WANT ONE!
More cool alternative energy stuffs :)
Yes! This! This Right Here!
Finally, sustainable energy designed according to nature. I hope this gets made! and that at a smaller scale it is viable for home use.
