The LOCCAL Loop newsletter: March, 2026

# ClimateChange #BenefitsOfComposting #Bushfires #YIMBY #CommunityResilience #What'sOn #CommunityComposting The end of summer is upon us, although you would hardly know it from the temperatures! This summer saw records tumble across Australia, with the CSIRO reporting that January brought the hottest temperatures ever recorded in numerous areas - some exceeding 49°C. Image courtesy of ABC 27/1/26 Tragically, extreme heat also fuelled devastating bushfires across Victoria.

Climate marches aren't working. The people in power aren't listening. So maybe it's time to stop asking for permission and start building resilience from the ground up.

Turn a Raspberry Pi 5 into a portable mesh router, ad blocker, offline wiki, and media server — all in one box. Take your internet with you, or build your own when there isn't any.

I've been thinking a lot about how we tackle #climatechange as a community. I want to share why I believe our strongest defense is actually coming together, not relying on governments or coporations.

The UK's weather isn't just changing, it's whiplashing. And we're still pretending it's normal!

❓ Wie ist der Herausforderung zu begegnen, ohne Einkommen nicht auszukommen?

❕Commoning kann Schritt für Schritt Leistungen ersetzen, die gemeinhin über den Markt vermittelt werden. Geschieht dies, ist weniger Geld für ein würdiges Leben nötig. Beziehungsnetze und Versorgungsstrukturen langlebiger Commons stiften nicht nur Zugehörigkeit, sondern auch materielle Sicherheit.

👉 Treuhänderische Organisationen wie die Kulturland Genossenschaft sichern Land für den Aufbau regionaler Versorgungsstrukturen durch Erbpacht, Crowdfunding und mehr.
👉 Commonsgemäße Wohnprojekte und Bauformen sorgen langfristig für ein mietpreisunabhängiges Dach über dem Kopf. Dafür stehen exemplarisch das Berliner Hausprojekt Kumi 13 oder das in Wien entwickelte Baukonzept Vivihouse.
👉 Im Gesundheitsbereich gibt es solidarische Unterstützungseinrichtungen ("Krankenversicherungen") wie Solidago oder Artabana.
