Posted by

The Stolen Wind Tribe of Cascadia Pass. New Myth 27 by Willi Paul Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines Windmills of yesterday are not the same as the horizontal axis wind turbines of today. Most large utility scale wind turbines such as the ones you’ll find on wind farms use a horizontal axis.

The Plastique Sea Barge Tribe. New Myth 26 by Willi Paul, openmythsource.com http://wp.me/p14SHM-GC An ironic twist to the localization movement throughout Cascadia, the Plastique Sea is a moving permaculture experiment, a bobbing and rolling decentralized government with a flag and a rowdy group chant.

“Our Own Bread” – Interview with rani Jayakumar, Transition Palo Alto, by Willi Paul, Permaculture Exchange http://planetshifter.com/node/2042 “I adore anything craft-related, especially when it uses found materials and things that would otherwise end up in the landfill. I started with that very young – making little notebooks out of scraps of junk mail and stickers that had lost their glue and giving them as gifts to teachers.

“Shapeshift Threshold Reverie”. Interview with Maila T. Davenport PhD, AltarPlaces.org, Portland. By Willi Paul, openmythsource.com http://planetshifter.com/node/2040 – excerpt – “I am so pleased that people are bringing story and myth back into active culture – they have been stowed away on dusty library bookshelves for too long!

Yes to Permaculture! The Vladislav Davidzon Interview, Founder and CEO of Common Circle Education. By Willi Paul, Planetshifter.com Magazine http://planetshifter.com/node/2037 – excerpt – “I think a lot (of the global warming debate) boils down to leadership and vision. I also find that real understanding of leadership is badly lacking in the permaculture community.
