Scientists hope a sediment-laying strategy can help preserve the marine highway while restoring marshlands in Georgia. Can similar efforts work in Northeast marshes? Would it be worth it? [This article is a representative sample of content The Commons may publish in cooperation with our partners.]
It's important that we seamlessly relate to members beyond our site. We use MailerLite as our integrated newsletter program. The Commons newsletter enables all coop members to reach their readers. It also provides a member revenue share. Read on to find out how it all fits together.
The Commons is a member-supported climate medium that expands local engagement, amplifies regional climate media and continuously evolves public understanding of climate, its impacts and local informed response. Editorially Climate ≈ Life. We publish media to reinforce that maxim.
Habitat is a kowledge graphing tool that converts any text into local knowledge. In tech-speak, it is modular and pluggable, is built on best practices, and will be open source. It takes our words, graphs them into climate-domain relationships to build a public, evolving and local climate model.
You can invest in The Commons. Like other mission-centered investments — parenting, a craft or a talent — you will receive a return, not matter what. In this case you help our community gain tools, insight and talent. And, you also receive a year-end dividend, a vote and a place in The Commons.
The classic (if overused) metaphor of a three-legged stool is useful for a stuctural snapshot of The Commons. Our media builds our local, climate-centered knowledge base. And our infrastructure and governance, as a cooperative, extends these media, knowledge and infrastructure benefits to members.
The cooperative model, code base, and media resources of The Commons are all modular. They will be adapted to meet the needs of our and other communities. Our framework for local climate knowledge development fosters informed local cooperative action in our coastal communities and beyond.
The Commons is as a worker-owned cooperative focused on local media and tech. Our structure enables direct community involvement in developing and maintaining knowledge resources for local climate responsiveness. It also enables members to dream up and even spinoff great media-tech tools.
Habitat is built locally, from the ground up, on Natural Language Processing and a graph database and neural network. It transforms climate-related information into structured, queryable knowledge. Habitat turns everyday documents and our own words into local climate knowledge-media.
We are creating a local tech-media business and a public benefit coop that will be led by youth. Through it, we propose no less than to transform the ways we interact with climate, media and information. Moreover, The Commons will be an open community media partner. This is big.
For the Melting Men installations Azevedo places hundreds, sometimes thousands, of hand-cut ice figures in public places. The whole installation usually melts within the next 30 minutes, depending on local conditions, and draws a crowd to watch the unfolding events. Her art is climate-art.
The Vineyard and our region is a language. Habitat reads our words, concepts, and phrases to create a local language model. Stories become a medium for deeper community climate relationships. Write a story. It can be read and become a prompt for someone elses discovery. Here's a bit of how.
