This afternoon at Water Operations for Uncertain Futures 2023 #AFPLwouf23, we've taken on the role of various stakeholders and mapped out how we might carry out the #water concept pitches from initiation to adaptation. The takeaways? The considerations involved in shaping #water #futures are #complex and involve many interactions between #society, #environment, #technology, #industry, and #governance. Some things are easy to #adapt and #change – but on the whole, creating #robust and #equitable #systems in this space takes time, conversations, many knowledges, hard choices, and careful planning. And whether we know it or not, we all depend on the care people in this space take in creating robust water futures for us all.
#AFPLwouf23 is the third workshop in the Algorithmic Futures Policy Lab series, which has been made possible with the support of the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. ANU Institute for Water Futures and #OneBasinCRC have taken the lead in planning and supporting this workshop. Thanks, also, to the Fenner School of Environment and Society, ANU School of Cybernetics, ANU Centre for European Studies, CNRS LAMSADE, and DIMACS Rutgers University.

"Third, this combination of a deeply antidemocratic ethos and a desire to seek profits while externalizing costs can’t simply be regulated out of #SiliconValley. These are fundamental attributes of the #industry that trace back to the beginning of #computation. These origins in optimizing #plantations and crushing #worker uprisings prefigure the obsession with #surveillance and social #control that shape what we are told technological #innovations are for."
"First, the #industry represents the culmination of various lines of thought that are deeply hostile to democracy. #SiliconValley owes its existence to state intervention and subsidy, at different times working to #capture various institutions or wither their ability to interfere with private control of #computation."
"No, the real threat is the #industry that controls our #technology #ecosystem and lobbies for insulation from #states and #markets that might rein it in. I want to talk about three factors that make #SiliconValley, not one of its many developments, a “societal-scale #risk.”"

#Europe #China #Industry #IndustrialPolicy: "Because the entire European edifice was built on the premise that competition is sufficient to guarantee economic efficiency, there is close to zero technical-administrative capability to enforce industrial policy. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, austerity has had similarly damaging effects on state capacity. Asked about the viability of Biden’s programme, Brian Deese, the former director of the National Economic Council, sounded a cautious note: ‘A lot of that comes down to the professionalism of the civil service at the federal level and the state and local level – a lot of which has been hollowed out.’"

As your project gains experience with the stuff, you can document everything you've learned and share it - and learn from what other share in turn. You can expand into related fields - once you have lots of experience running a biochar kiln, perhaps it's time to look into working with a pottery, brick, or glassmaking kiln?
You can start specifying your #biochar by particle size, by the temperature it's cooked at, by what it's cooked from - there are a surprising number of variables, here. You can look for more applications for the stuff - what happens if you add it to clay for ceramics? Try and treat wood or textiles with it? Etc, etc?
If you want to get really fancy, you can set up a really sophisticated system and start making wood vinegar and wood gas while you're at it, and find uses for those. You can seek horizontal and vertical integration, and have a larger scale setup to share with neighboring projects, source your inputs from waste biomass from nearby projects, supply #biochar to said projects, etc.
As you get more experienced with the process and start finding more uses for the stuff, you can see about setting up a proper kiln or retort system to make higher quality #biochar and capture the waste heat for stuff - for example, if you're already heating with a wood stove, you can make a simple retort and cook biochar in it while you heat your house.
Okay, so! #Biochar as a #permaculture #industry. I think it's a good fit, because the input, biomass, is readily available in most permaculture projects, and the output, biochar, is readily usable in most permaculture projects. You can make the stuff by just digging a pit, burning your biomass, and then putting the fire out once it's reached the right point, and you can use it for waste management, soil amendment, water filtration, and all sorts of stuff.
Okay! So, that's a start on the subject. I'm going to call it a night for now, but in a day or two I'm going to expand on this with some examples, starting with one of the perfect industries for permaculture - #biochar! Feel free to message me about it if I forget. XD
Finally, principle twelve! Moving up and down the value added chain and pursuing vertical integration is a start. Having a variety of yields so that you can address a wider portion of the economy's needs is also good. Trialing and adopting new technologies, improving upon old ones, and adapting to the changing circumstances around you are also all good. This one, more than anything else, requires experience, I think. XD
Principle eleven, I'd argue, calls for much the same approach as principles eight and ten. Though, cross training people so they can work on multiple related processes, or being able to use tools for multiple processes, might be worthwhile? Worth looking into, IMO. :/
Principle ten we've effectively already covered - use a variety of yields and outputs, and processes too where possible. Straightforwards, but far from trivial - this kind of thing can be difficult and expensive, and potentially very inefficient. I'm not entirely sure how to square all this, but I think it can be done.
For principle nine, this is again straightforwards, but not exactly easy. Industry is generally more efficient the larger it is, and when building a factory can already take years, slowing things down is really painful. I think it's still possible to find ways to do this beneficially, but it's not going to be easy - and it's going to resemble cottage industry more than anything else, IMO. :/
For principle eight, I'd recommend trying to build a robust set of interconnections - multiple sources for inputs and outputs, diversified processes and yields, #OpenSource, etc. Also, moving up the value added chain and developing uses for your own yields, and maybe sources for your own inputs, for additional redundancy.
So, for example, if you exist in a place where the duck curve is a major thing, setting up some energy intensive industry to run during the day when all that solar energy is at a huge surplus, then switching over to a less energy intensive industry to run later, perhaps even using the waste heat generated earlier.
Principles seven and eight are really complex, and hard to apply, but really useful once you understand them IMO. For number seven, this would mean starting out by studying the resources, desired yields, available solutions, and surrounding constraints of the space that you're working in and designing your operation accordingly.
principles five and six are straightforwards, but far from easy. Finding ways to recycle waste products, or turn them into yields that can be used elsewhere is a perennial desire, problem, and frustration of industry. I think it's worth it, but I don't expect it to be easy. Another thing where #OpenSource is worthwhile, to help bring the costs of this down and maximize the benefits for the system as a whole.
The second and third principles are pretty straightforwards, but there are some details worth mentioning - recapturing waste energy from processes, and obtaining secondary and diversified yields, for example. I would also focus on more abstract yields that help build the system, like experience and knowledge - hence my focus on #opensource.
I'm not entirely sure how to go about this, but I have a few ideas. We could start by going through the principles and applying them one by one, for example. I'd argue that making as much open source as possible helps a lot with the first principle, for example, and to a lesser extent the fourth and seventh. :/
So, I've been thinking about this lately. Even the most serious permaculture advocates will still use metal tools, right? Just too useful to give up. But in order to have metal tools, you need to have industry, and industry isn't very permaculture... So, what if we found a way to *make* it permaculture? :/

Blow up the microchips? What China's plans for Taiwan says about U.S. strategy.
What if Washington emphasized that a Chinese takeover would lead to the destruction of Taiwan’s world-class #microchip #industry — specifically its flagship firm, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.?
Speaking at a Milken Institute panel in Los Angeles, Rep. Seth Moulton (Mass.) said:
“One of the interesting ideas that’s been floated out there for deterrence is just making it very clear to the Chinese that if you invade Taiwan, we’re going to blow up #TSMC.”
He continued: “I just throw that out not because that’s necessarily the best strategy, but because it’s an example of the debate that’s out there. And of course, the Taiwanese really don’t like this idea.”

while investment growth has largely stagnated in the UK, across the channel it continues (investment in France has grown by around 25% since #brexit)

In the 1940s, Henry Ford was experimenting with a car body made from soybeans, wheat, hemp, flax and ramie. It weighed about half as much as a steel car and would have been safer.
WWII halted the auto industry at the time this was in its infancy. Recovery efforts funneled energy elsewhere which essentially killed the project.
