Yagheli jan,

Please share and consider donating to this exciting solar project!

i want to share with you all an exciting development at the intersection of renewable energy, ecological restoration, and Indigenous sovereignty.

Tyonek is a remote Dena'ina Athabascan village located 40 miles from Alaska's largest city, Anchorage. for time immemorial, the Dena'ina have stewarded and honored the land. but the legacy of settler-colonialism and extractive capitalism has impoverished the people of Tyonek.

Indigenous people have been disproportionately affected by climate change and pollution. i encourage you all to be a part of the renewable energy transition and support the Tribal community of Tyonek as they advance the engineering, procurement, and construction of a decentralized solar microgrid.

Skip Google for Research

As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse.  It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms 

As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable.  As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.

Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

⁂

Google is so powerful that it “hides” other search systems from us. We just don’t know the existence of most of them. Meanwhile, there are still a huge number of excellent searchers in the world who specialize in books, science, other smart information. Keep a list of sites you never heard of.

I created a fundraiser to pay for vet bills, so I can welcome this beautiful cat into my home safely. I can pay for food and basic needs, but I don't have enough to pay for vaccines and a spay/neuter cost. All proceeds go to vet bills & to give him a home https://gofund.me/854c016f
