Hedges responded, quite well I might add, to this charge from three years
ago:

Hello David - 

Your starting point seems to be what is being produced today (solar cell
tech., EV's, etc.), as though these are the most efficient ways to provide
power or transport into the future.  As a former builder and amateur
architect I can assure you that placing solar panels on the McMansions of
today is utterly wasteful. Above all, orientation of buildings is key, and
with careful placement of doors and windows, shade trees and awnings -- and
perhaps most importantly changes to Building Codes to engender this -- we
can solve just about any problems with heating and cooling of buildings.
There are many other online resources, but as far as transportation goes one
I've found indispensable is Low Tech Magazine, which you can find online at
. Low Tech Mag. is also a fine historical
resource. We have so much to learn from the past; just about all the
problems of today have been pondered and dealt with by greater minds than
ours. If we take the best of past practice and put it to work today, there
is little left to solve. For example, if we practiced agriculture as
explained in the book "Farmers of Forty Centuries" then we would improve our
soil instead of deplete it.

If you're on Facebook, for alternative technology generally check out my
Post-Industrial Library at
.

Roger Annis et al have been documenting the crimes of the age lately. No
mention, of course, of Russians bombing Syrian hospitals or such mundane
things like that -

I'm not sure about the U.S. but in Canada there were and still are several
Labour Studies programs and colleges. I graduated from one myself at the
University of Manitoba 25 years ago, where Cy Gonick, John Loxley, Henry
Heller, Jesse Vorst et al were my professors.

 

There were or are similar programs at Queens University in Kingston,
Ontario, and at Memorial University in Newfoundland where Greg Kealey and
others taught.
