Sustainably Addressing Global Poverty – One Community Weekly Progress Update #332

Sustainably addressing global poverty is possible with a comprehensive approach. We think this approach should include complete sustainability practices and bringing resources to the places they are needed most, then teaching people how to use and replicate them so they can support themselves and help teach others how to support themselves too. Providing an example, training platform, and launch-point for a global cooperative of teacher/demonstration hubs working together for the Highest Good of all people and life on this planet.

• 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’s physical location will forward this movement as the first of many self-replicating teacher/demonstration communities, villages, and cities to be built around the world. This is the August 4th, 2019 edition (#332) of our weekly progress update detailing our team’s development and accomplishments:

ONE COMMUNITY WEEKLY UPDATE DETAILS

SUSTAINABLY ADDRESSING GLOBAL POVERTY HIGHEST GOOD HOUSING PROGRESS

One Community is sustainably addressing global poverty 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 week the core team continued adding the content to the most sustainable insulation options page, focusing on sustainably addressing global poverty. This week we finished the sections shown here for Denim, Hemp, and Wool.

SUSTAINABLY ADDRESSING GLOBAL POVERTY DUPLICABLE CITY CENTER PROGRESS

One Community is sustainably addressing global poverty 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 added all the final Duplicable City Center library renders to the open source hub and also updated the pipe furniture page to clarify this as the new direction that room is taking, sustainably addressing global poverty.

Ron Huang (Mechanical Engineer) also continued with his 13th week working on the Energy Modeling for our LEED Platinum certification and City Center open source HVAC design tutorial. This week, he focused on sustainably addressing global poverty by revising the proposed HVAC system to use a more sustainable hydronic cooling and heat recovery system.

Sneha Dongre (Structural Engineer) additionally continued with her 18th week helping with the Duplicable City Center structural details. This week’s focus was creating columns and beams in AutoCAD for the sliding glass door entryways.

Mateus Barretto (Civil Engineer) also rejoined the team and reviewed and made minor updates to the City Center plumbing designs he helped create several years ago, sustainably addressing global poverty. You can see some of this work here.

This was in preparation for a redesign Kimya Azadmard (Senior Plumbing Engineer) has joined the team to help with. Kimya’s focus this week was writing the City Center plumbing basis of design details shown here.

SUSTAINABLY ADDRESSING GLOBAL POVERTY HIGHEST GOOD FOOD PROGRESS

SUSTAINABLY ADDRESSING GLOBAL POVERTY HIGHEST GOOD EDUCATION PROGRESS

One Community is sustainably addressing global poverty 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. This component of One Community is about 95% complete with only the Open Source School Licensing and Ultimate Classroom construction and assembly details remaining to be finished. With over 8 years of work invested in the process, the sections below are all complete until we move onto the property and continue the development and open sourcing process with teachers and students – a development process that is built directly into the structure of the education program and everything else we’re creating too:

Sustainably Addressing Global Poverty

WHAT ONE COMMUNITY IS CREATING

One Community is creating a place to grow together and change the world together. We are creating a space that helps each other live in integrity with each other and the planet as we strive to be the greatest versions of ourselves. We do this by harmoniously respecting each other, nature, and the rest of our one shared planet.

Our goal is to demonstrate what we feel is the most sustainable, healthy, and fun environment we can create. A place based on compassion, kindness, and collaboration. This replicable community will serve as an example for what is possible.

Throughout our design process we are open sourcing and free-sharing everything needed for construction and replication. This includes what we call “Highest Good” approaches to food, energy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economics design, social architecture, fulfilled living, stewardship practices and more. We are creating these resources for implementation as individual components or complete developments called teacher/demonstration hubs. These hubs will help launch additional hubs as awareness and knowledge grow.
