My goal is to make it painfully easy to live in communities where you can walk, bike, or take public transport to all of your daily needs, which is a completely low tech problem with a huge social science component.
The first step, I think, is making it obvious when purchasing a home whether you will be able to do this yourself.
Want to collaborate? I have a pilot project going for Ireland and am unsure where to take it - www.gaffologist.com (it's buggy AF but it got me my own home!)
- ngoilapites 4y agoThis could be an idea: to expand this work and map neighbourhoods according to their "affordances" aka opportunities for a sustainable or climate friendly living. I'd love to engage myself on something like this, I will drop an email after hols, keep it strong!
- CalRobert 4y agoThanks! Would love to do same but no contact info in your bio.
- nadavr 4y agowhat is "painfully easy"?
- CalRobert 4y agoYou know, that's a good point. I suppose I mean "painfully obvious". Like, so easy/obvious to figure out where to live that it's the easiest choice, not something you have to spend ages trying to tease out from existing tools.
