HEMP: Something All Homes Should Be Made Of

Many people are becoming aware of ways to live that are more harmonious with the planet.  It seems that we are transitioning to a very ancient understanding of how to operate here on Earth, with a very advanced ‘know how’ of technologies and methods to begin making that transition. New ways of living are coming to light and although you may not hear about them often, communities all over the world are starting to implement them. A new sustainable housing project in the Northwest of Scotland will use industrial hemp as the main building material. It’s made of a prefabricated wall system called Hembuild, which is a mixture of the plant’s woody core and a lime-based binder. Another popular name for this is Hempcrete. This […] Read More

Electrical Technology and Human Evolution

Appendix 2 Electrical Technology and Human Evolution L.B. Hainsworth, 1987 13/91 Dampier Avenue, Mullaloo, Western Austrlia 6025, Australia Copyright, Speculations in Science and Technology, Vol. 11, No. 2, p. 101 Abstract: The influence of naturally occurring Schumann resonant signals on brain-wave pattern evolution is formally stated to show that low-power electrical fields could produce evolutionary change. The electrical fields produced by modern electro-technology are then considered briefly, as possible sources of evolutionary change. The characteristics of some forms which might result are considered, and some of the factors tha tmight inhibit survival of existing forms. The extent of research work being done in this area is assessed in relation to the lack of data available, showing that any expert opinion asserting that there is no […] Read More
