Consolidating our energy towards a global network of steem-based eco-communities is a clear priority for @ecotrain. We deliberately and consciously curate those posts which speak to the issues, challenges and needs of the emerging steem eco-communities around the world.
GREAT content this week - here are some of the gems, eco-green wisdom & insight shared under the #ecotrain tag this week on the steem blockchain. Even if you don't have VP or RC to upvote, a meaningful comment is usually upvoted by a smart author, so please go and lavish your appreciation and engagement on this great content.
We truly are an amazing global community - and growing with new contributors every week!! If you want to help @ecotrain give juicier upvotes, please delegate or increase your delegation if you can. It matters! You loaning us your steem to make more money for you? Bit of a no-brainer, really!
@ecotrain is a artisan-hand-curated community built around the concept of gift economy and actively making our world a better place. We engage around sustainability, eco-green, permaculture, the glories of Mother Earth, inner transformation, alternative energy, earthships & earth building, recycling - in short, all the practical and conceptual underpinnings of paradigm shift.
Each week @eco-alex and @artemislives scour the steemit blockchain for people using the tag, and upvote-comment-curate in the best way they know how.
Please:
Upvote this eco-community curation and our featured posts if you can. Comment, resteem this curation and a few of the posts. Follow, engage and enjoy.
@orlev
Land zoning, building permits and fire risk are issues confronting the
fledgling Eco-Village project in Portugal. @orlev gives us the detail
in the spirit of transparency for collective learning that the project
is committed to.
@abdulhamids
The Odessa community in Bandung, Indonesia, is reverting to old,
traditional crops to address sustainable food source and spiraling cost
of living. Great to see how different cultures and communities around
the world are coming together aorund the themes of eco-living,
sustainability and community.

@Build-It Contest: Building a Home Inverter
(DIY)
Practical how-to is a MUST-HAVE in any Eco-Village. @zumed shows us how
to make a simple home inverter, for moderating electrical current. His
NEXT project is a solar inverter - we're sure hoping he uses the
@ecotrain tag and shares that knowledge with us too! If you're not
already following @build-it, please do - so many great tips, projects
and how-to ideas.

Organic Frontiers - The Part of Organic Social Enterprise You Rarely
See
The remote, indigenous, displaced Karen community on the Thai Burmese
border is continuing its Organic Frontiers project and preparing to
harvest its first herbal crop. Eco-Village and Eco-Community is a "have
to" survival strategy in this part of the world. @artemislives traveled
across Northern Thailand to see exactly how the crop has grown and to
make a harvest-action-plan with the local Karen community.
Growing out of the first communication challenges with the eco-village
project in Portugal, @eco-alex has generously offered a 4 week FREE Non

of how ECO is different, and how we propose to create value.
What is ecoVillage Coin, what makes it different, the investment model,
Is now the best time to
buy?
Some interesting gems here. I liked the in Odessa, Indonesia about "rebuilding the past" through traditional crops. Something about them gaining a resurgence after falling out of favor is very interesting to me. I like alternative plant foods.
There's some great work happening in Bandung - @abdulhamids and Odessa doing really creative, community things!
Thanks for the feedback. Odesa Fondation (with single "s" 😁) believes that the solusion of our food crisis is on certain own food that ever existed in the past (when our ancestors consumed and plant it). Hope our movement could give an inspiration to all of activists like you all to find a problem solving from your own land. 🙏
Appreciating the passionate people working together towards new paradigms of community and living around the world. #togetherwecan

Awesome article! Our world needs more people like you who are solution oriented. It's good to see that there are people who are part of making our world a better place, still, it just seems to me that we lack practical sense: In case you didn't live under a rock, you already know that WW3 is already a reality.
After our current war there are gonna be less people on this planet.
This is exactly what they want:
At this point we can NO longer work in the direction of waking people up because we NO longer exist, so a good question might be:
