Everything that's currently in the Wildfire Smoke Resources doc has now been copied onto the website! https://wildfiresmokeresources.neocities.org/
If you have information or resources you would like to share--anything like info about a local mask bloc in North America, a clean air program your city government runs, a safe location with a good HVAC system where people can get out of smoky air, or even things like tree-planting programs and more long-term ways to locally combat climate change and improve air quality, please feel free to share it with me either here on Mastodon or via this Cryptpad form: https://cryptpad.fr/form/#/3/form/view/03ab8efd32850a3d5d5c376d39ed0284/ I'll add the information to both the doc and the site as soon as I can.

A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
We are told by the Bible and by the churches that through this fall of man
“Sin and death entered the world.”
According to this, just as soon as Adam and Eve had partaken of the forbidden fruit, God began to contrive ways by which he could destroy the lives of his children. He invented all the diseases — all the fevers and coughs and colds — all the pains and plagues and pestilences — all the aches and agonies, the malaria and spores; so that when we take a breath of air we admit into our lungs unseen assassins; and, fearing that some might live too long, even under such circumstances, God invented the earthquake and volcano, the cyclone and lightning, animalcules to infest the heart and brain, so small that no eye can detect — no instrument reach. This was all owing to the disobedience of Adam and Eve!Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator

How are #NaturalDisaster-resistant design elements integrated into #Solarpunk buildings?
Publication date: 2023-09-02
"In Solarpunk buildings, natural disaster-resistant design elements are integrated through a combination of passive and active design strategies. Here are a few ways in which these elements can be incorporated:
1. Site selection and orientation: Solarpunk buildings are typically situated in areas that are less susceptible to natural disasters like #floods, #earthquakes, or #tsunamis. Careful evaluation of the site's history and potential risks helps in choosing locations that are more resilient. Additionally, the building orientation can be optimized to maximize #NaturalLight and minimize exposure to prevailing #winds or #storms.
2. Structural reinforcements: Solarpunk buildings embrace resilient construction techniques to withstand natural disasters. This may include reinforced foundations, earthquake-resistant designs, hurricane-resistant materials, and robust structural systems that can withstand high winds, seismic activity, or even #ExtremeWeather events.
3. #GreenRoofs and #RainwaterHarvesting: Green roofs, which incorporate vegetation on the rooftop, offer several benefits when it comes to natural disaster resilience. They can help mitigate stormwater runoff, reducing the strain on existing drainage systems during heavy rainfalls or floods. Additionally, rainwater harvesting systems can be implemented to collect and store rainwater for future use, serving as an alternative water source during emergencies.
4. Passive climate control: Solarpunk design emphasizes #PassiveCooling and heating strategies to reduce energy consumption and reliance on mechanical systems. Natural ventilation through well-placed windows, louvers, or #RoofVents can help regulate indoor temperatures. By not relying heavily on air conditioning units, Solarpunk buildings can maintain habitability even during power outages caused by natural disasters.
5. #RenewableEnergy systems: Solarpunk buildings integrate renewable energy systems like solar panels or wind turbines to generate electricity on-site. This reduces dependence on centralized energy grids, making the building more self-sufficient and resilient in the face of power disruptions caused by natural disasters. Battery storage systems can also be incorporated to store excess energy and provide backup power during emergencies.
6. Water management and flood-resistance: Solarpunk buildings employ strategies such as permeable paving, #RainGardens, and water retention ponds to manage stormwater. These features help minimize the risk of flooding and prevent damage caused by heavy rains or #ExtremeWeather events.
"By combining these design elements, Solarpunk buildings aim to create sustainable and resilient structures that can better withstand the challenges posed by natural disasters."
