What is this?
=============

+----------------------
+
+Permacomputing is a radically slightly more sustainable approach to computer and network technology inspired by permaculture
+
+Permacomputing is both a concept and a community of practice oriented around issues of resilience and regenerativity in digital technology. In a time where computing epitomizes industrial waste, permacomputing encourages a more sustainable approach, maximizing hardware lifespans, minimizing energy use and focussing on the use of already available computational resources. We do this because humans are part of nature and technology is an extension of humans, and we acknowledge that technology has been used to harm nature. We want to find out how we can practice good relations with the Earth by learning from ecological systems to leverage and re-center existing technologies and practices. On this wiki, open to individuals and collectives who identify as Earth's stewards, we maintain a set of principles, collectively document practical perspectives and interpretations of these principles, and offer more speculative reflections on permacomputing.

-Started in May 2022, this [[wiki]] is about [[permacomputing]], a radically sustainable approach to [[computing]] inspired by [[permaculture]], with a focus on utilizing already available computational resources.
+Started in May 2022, the permacomputing [[wiki]] is where we gather our thoughts on the topic and try document projects and ideas related to permacomputing.
-**The wiki is still at a very early stage of development, we don't know yet what permacomputing can be or could be. We need your help, specially if you have expertise in ecology, environmentalism and computer/net technology. If you want to contribute, please contact us for [[editing]] privileges.**
