Industrial agriculture is often under-represented in these discussions, but it's the leading or second-leading cause of climate change. At the same time, diet-related disease is the leading cause of human death. Growing some part of your diet is a really important thing that people need to be doing.
So you could get into growing some food or look for ways to support local farming. To those points, my startup project (terrafarm.io) is a web platform for making it easier for people to contribute to local food systems. It is only a demo atm, but the plan is to have an official product this upcoming Spring. I'm the only person working on it full-time, but I'm always on the look-out for people who care about the problem and want to contribute. So far, I've only hired contractors because I can't afford more than that. But feel free to PM me if you have any interest or feedback on the concept.
- dgellow 10y agoI tried your demo, I have to say it was a very confusing. Expect an email with more details later this week when I can find some free time.
- rojobuffalo 10y agoThanks for checking it out! Sorry I wasn't more clear about it. It's still just bits and pieces of the initial design, and is clearly not in any sort of useful state. I'm not yet asking anyone to try it out--just pointing to the link in case you want to track the development.
