Shining a Light on Tradition: The Cultural Impact of Solar Power in Remote Communities

Today, we are entering a world bathed in sunlight, not just literally, but figuratively. This is the reality for many remote and indigenous communities around the globe who are embracing solar energy. But the impact goes beyond simply flipping a switch. Solar adoption is quietly weaving itself into the very fabric of these communities, transforming not just lifestyles and economies, but also cultural practices and traditions. 

Flickering Hope: Lighting Up Remote Lives 

Having access to dependable energy has long been a pipe dream for many rural communities. Diesel generators, often the only option, are expensive, noisy, and environmentally harmful. Enter solar power, a clean and sustainable solution that harnesses the abundant sunshine these regions naturally receive. Ground-mounted solar installations or even floating solar panels on lakes and reservoirs are changing the game. Homes that were once shrouded in darkness after sunset are now illuminated, allowing children to study longer and families to gather under a brighter sky. This newfound access to electricity is a fundamental shift, empowering communities and fostering a sense of progress. 

Empowering Hands: Building a Brighter Future 

The benefits extend beyond basic lighting. Solar panel installation projects are creating new opportunities in these communities. Locals are being trained in solar technology, fostering a sense of ownership and creating jobs within their own communities. In addition to bringing in much-needed revenue, this gives people and communities the power to take control of their energy requirements. Imagine a young lady from a far-off village training to be a proficient solar specialist, her expertise lighting not only houses but also a way forward for a better future. 

Weaving Sunlight into Tradition 

The cultural impact of solar adoption is a story waiting to be told. In some communities, solar power is being used to support traditional practices. Solar-powered refrigerators are keeping food fresh, ensuring the preservation of indigenous diets and cultural foodways. Solar-powered water pumps are bringing clean water closer to homes, aligning with traditional reverence for water and the natural world. This integration of solar technology with cultural practices creates a beautiful synergy, demonstrating that progress doesn't have to come at the cost of tradition. 

Challenges and the Road Ahead 

Of course, challenges remain. Installing solar panels can be expensive initially, and in distant locations, there may not be as much technical know-how available for upkeep. However, innovative financing models and partnerships with organizations like GREW are helping bridge these gaps. 

Lighting the Way Forward 

For decades, remote communities relied on noisy, polluting diesel generators, limiting power and shrouding nights in darkness. This hampered education, livelihoods, and even food preservation. But a new dawn is breaking. Solar power, clean and abundant, is changing the game. Ground-mounted installations or floating solar panels on lakes are bringing reliable light to homes once bathed in flickering candlelight. This shift from diesel to sunshine-powered electricity lays the foundation for a brighter future, where tradition and progress can thrive together. 

GREW is a prime example of a company that is dedicated to both community development and sustainability. Their three-stage fully backward integrated manufacturing ensures quality and affordability, making solar power more accessible to remote communities. Their commitment to providing clean energy solutions to those in need is demonstrated by their solar module plant in Kathua, India. GREW’s ground-mounted solar and floating solar panels projects are changing lives, and their module manufacturing facility guarantees the high standards required for effective implementation. By working together, companies like GREW and forward-thinking communities can ensure that the light of solar power continues to illuminate not just homes, but also cultural traditions and a brighter future for generations to come.

adventures in aerospace

So I recently started working at Large Aircraft Manufacturer. (LAM) The plant I work at employs 30,000 people. The company as a whole employs 170,000. Usually you only hear about LAM when something goes wrong. But no matter how bumbling it seems from the outside, it's way worse on the inside.

Three months after my first day, I have been "graduated" from "training." In reality, I'm still completely worthless on the floor: the training center has given me a paltry subset of the production certificates I need to actually to do my assigned job. A commonly cited statistic at LAM is that a hundred men a day are retiring, each one representing decades of experience, walking out the door, forever. The training center is in the unenviable position of managing a generational replacement, and have resorted to shoveling heaps of zoomers through as fast as possible. (As one of the few people with a visible hairline and who is not wearing a Roblox graphic tee; I am frequently mistaken for an instructor, and asked where the bathroom is, what time the next class starts, etc)

In theory, the training center knows what shop I'm assigned to, and can simply assign me all the required classes. In practice, they do the absolute minimum amount of training in a desperate attempt to relive the crowding in their handful of computer labs and tell graduates to pick up their certs later.

Of course, the irresistible force of the schedule meets the immovable object of the FAA. If you don't have the required production certificate to perform a particular job, you don't touch the airplane. Full stop, end of story.

And so the curtain opens on the stage. It reveals a single senior mechanic, supervising a mechanic who finally received all the certs and is being qualified on this particular job, surrounded by another three trainees. Trainees are less than nothing, absolute scum. At best we can fetch and carry. Mostly we are expected to stay out of the way. And the senior mechanic is only senior in title. He is one of six assembler-installers who is certified to actually work on the plane, out of twenty people on the crew, and spends every day with a permanent audience. He is 23 years old.

("Mechanic"? If you think the jargon at your job is bad, try joining a company that's a century old. Assembler-installers are universally referred to as "mechanics", despite doing work that's nothing like what a car mechanic does, and who are generally paid far worse than FAA certified A&P mechanics. Mechanics are the 11 bravos of LAM, grunts, the single largest category of worker. The tip of the spear. Hooah!)

Large Aircraft Manufacturer is in a dilly of a pickle. All of its existing airframe designs are hilariously antiquated. It tried designing a brand new plane from a clean sheet, and lost billions of dollars to a decade-long integration hell. After that, to save money, it tried just tacking bigger engines on an older design without changing anything else, and the stupid things plowed into the ground in an excruciatingly public manner.

LAM is now trying a middle road. It is upgrading one of its designs that is merely middle aged, rather than ancient, and with proven, de-risked components built in-house, rather than scattering them to subcontractors across the world. And it's still blowing past deadlines and burning billions of dollars LAM really doesn't have to spare.

This is the program I've been assigned to.

Advanced Midbody - Carbon Wing has taken the bold step of just tacking on carbon fiber wings to a conventional aluminum fuselage. Shockingly, AMCW is now stuck in lightning strike testing, due to that troublesome join between conductive aluminum and conductive...ish carbon fiber. But LAM, confident as ever, or perhaps driven by complaints of its customers, has announced that full rate production will begin just next year. Thus the tide of newhires. According to the schedule, we're supposed to jerk from one wingset a month to one wingset a week. That's not going to happen, but, oh well, orders from above move down at the speed of thought, while reality only slowly trickles upwards.

"120 inch pounds? Really?"

I startle upright. I have observed one hundred pi bracket installs, and I will observe a hundred more before I can touch aircraft structure. This is the first disagreement I've witnessed. A more advanced trainee is questioning the torque spec on a fastener. It is not an entirely foolish question-- most sleeve bolts we use are in the 40 in-pounds range. Doubling it that is unusual. I cough the dust off my unused vocal cords and venture an opinion.

"Well hey I could look it up? I guess"

The lead mechanic glances at me, surprised that I'm still awake, then looks away. Excuse enough for me!

I unfold myself from the stool I've been sitting on for the last four hours then hobble over to the nearest Shared Production Workstation.

We do not get Ikea-style step by step instructions on how to put together the airplane. Like any company that's been around for long enough, LAM is a tangled wad of scar tissue, ancient responses to forgotten trauma. If you state a dimension twice, in two different places, then it is possible for an update to only change one of those dimensions, thereby making the engineering drawing ambiguous. Something real bad must have happened in the past as a result of that, so now an ironclad rule is that critical information is only stated once, in one place, a single source of truth.

As a result, the installation plan can be a little... vague. Step 040 might be something like "DRILL HOLE TO SIZE AND TORQUE FASTENERS TO SPEC". What hole size? What torque spec?

Well, they tell you. Eventually.

(Image from public Google search)

You are given an engineering drawing, and are expected to figure out how things go together yourself. (Or, more realistically, are told how it's done by coworkers) Step by step instructions aren't done because then dozens of illustrations would have to be updated with every change instead of just one, and drawings are updated surprisingly frequently.

Fasteners are denoted by a big plus sign, with a three letter fastener code on the left and the diameter on the right, like so: "XNJ + 8"

To get the actual part number, we go to the fastener callout table:

(Note the use of a trade name in the table above. There is nothing a mechanic loves more than a good trademark. Permanent straight shank fasteners are always called HI-LOKs™. It's not a cable tie, it's a Panduit™. It's not a wedgelock, it's a Cleco™. Hey man, pass me that offset drill. What, you mean a Zephyr™? Where'd the LAMlube™ go? This also means you have to learn the names of everything twice, one name on the installation plan, and one name it's referred to in conversation.)

We find XNJ on that table, and fill in the diameter: BACB30FM8A. Now we look up the spec table for that fastener:

The eagle eyed among you might note that there is no "diameter: 8" on that table. As a LAM mechanic, you are expected to simply know that "diameter" is measured in 32nds of an inch, which simplifies down to 1/4.

(LAM preserves many old-school skills like fraction reduction and memorizing decimal equivalents like this, like flies caught in amber. Not least is the universal use of Imperial units. Many American manufacturers have been browbeaten into adding parenthetical conversions. Not LAM! Any risk at all of a mechanic seeing a second number and using it by accident is too great, and anyway, it violates SSOT. Lengths are in inches and feet, weights are in pounds, volume is in gallons and if you don't like it then you can go eat shit!)

After 10 minutes of following references, I arrive at that table, print it off, highlight the correct row, and hand it off to my senior mechanic.

"Great, thanks."

Gratified that I have enhanced shareholder value, I sit back down, and immediately fall asleep. Another day living the dream.

Satisfactory: The Full Ficsonium-Chain Nuclear Power Plant

Okay.

So.

I did it.

The thing I love doing most in Satisfactory is creating giant power plants that give me way more power than I need so I don't have to worry about my overhead while making other things. It's the thing that really captured and hooked me into a loyal player.

In the 1.0 release, they added a way to fully engage your uranium resources and make plutonium power without unsinkable waste product, by adding a third step called Ficsonium.

And so the gauntlet was thrown down.

Starting out, making this all work looked impossible. But slowly, I whittled away at it, optimized it, until I had a workable plan. And now that I've built it, I'm going to subject you all to the write-up.

93.75 Uranium, 93.75 Sulfur, 56.25 Silica, and 281.25 Quickwire goes into 3 Manufacturers (overclocked to 125%) to make 75 Encased Uranium Cells (using the Infused Uranium Cell alternate recipe).

(All material numbers are in parts-per-minute, by the way, in case that confuses anybody.)

Those E.U. Cells go straight into 3 more Manufacturers (again, overclocked to 125%, and the Cell outputs/inputs are 1:1), along with 7.5 Electromagnetic Control Rods, 2.25 Crystal Oscillators, and 7.5 Rotors to make 2.25 Uranium Fuel Rods (using the Uranium Fuel Unit alternate recipe).

The Uranium Fuel Rods are fed into 6 Nuclear Power Plants (each overclocked to 187.5%, so the equivalent of 11.25 power plants). Each fuel rod Manufacturer splits its outputs to two of the power plants. The power plants are fed with 450 cubic meters of water each from the framework above (except for the nearest one, which is also taking water byproduct from the next stage). Together, the uranium power plants produce 28,125 MW of electrical power and 112.5 Uranium Waste.

The Uranium Waste is quickly conveyed beneath the floor over to three Blenders (overclocked to 150%), along with another 112.5 raw Uranium, 67.5 Nitric Acid, and 112.5 Sulfuric Acid, to make 450 Non-Fissile Uranium (using the Fertile Uranium alternate recipe). This also produces 180 water byproduct, which is fed back into the first uranium power plant.

Each Blender feeds into its own row of 2 Particle Accelerators, for a total of 6. (No overclocking here, for once!) The Non-Fissile Uranium is mixed with 60 total Aluminum Casings to produce 60 Encased Plutonium Cells (using the Instant Plutonium Cell alternate recipe).

The Encased Plutonium Cells are fed into 4 Manufacturers (overclocked to 200% - and we're back), along with 36 Steel Beams, 12 Electromagnetic Control Rods, and 20 Heat Sinks, to make a whole whopping 2 Plutonium Fuel Rods!

(Everything up to this point is considered "Stage One" of the overall nuclear power plant. At this juncture, I left the remaining power plants unconnected and simply destroyed the Plutonium Fuel Rods in the AWESOME Sink while I took a break and worked on other parts with the electrical power the uranium plants alone were giving me. Everything after this is considered "Stage Two," the even more complicated part.)

Once the rest of the chain was ready, I connected the Plutonium Fuel Rod Manufacturer outputs to 8 more nuclear power plants (overclocked to 250%, effectively 20 power plants!), 2 for each line. Each plant gets 600 water from overhead as well. This alone gives me another 50,000 MW of power!

...But it also produces 20 Plutonium Waste, which until 1.0 was completely indestructible and had to be stored away in a dedicated dump indefinitely.

(Sure, people have done the math. With enough space, you can buy yourself literal months of in-game uptime before your dump fills up with waste and the power plants become inoperable, in exchange for writing off that part of the map. But why give yourself any such hassle at all if you don't have to? Sustainability is a part of efficiency!)

The Plutonium Waste is brought over to 2 Particle Accelerators and combined with 20 Singularity Cells and 400 Dark Matter Residue (neither of which are cheap!) to make 20 Ficsonium.

The Ficsonium, 20 Electromagnetic Control Rods (again! so many!), 400 Ficsite Trigons (!!!), and 200 Excited Photonic Matter (dirt simple, actually - phew!) are fed into 4 Quantum Encoders to make 10 Ficsonium Fuel Rods. This also produces 200 Dark Matter Residue as a byproduct, which I put into a Particle Accelerator to make Dark Matter Crystals that I just toss into an AWESOME Sink.

(If you're smart, you could just loop the byproduct here back into the previous step and cut that input in half, but... I just could not be bothered this time. I wanted this plant fully operational as soon as possible.)

And finally, the Ficsonium Fuel Rods are sent directly from the Quantum Encoders to 4 Nuclear Power Plants (overclocked to 250% again, effectively 10 power plants) and mixed with 600 overhead water each to produce another 25,000 MW of power and absolutely zero waste or byproduct.

For a grand total of... 103,125 MW!

(And that's before adding bonus power from Alien Power Augmenters later!)

This was a massive build that took up the entire swamp region of the map (because to hell with the swamp, all my homies hate the swamp and their eldritch-moving alpha spiders). There's an interim layer of the platform for "spaghetti," or conveying the materials to where they need to go, and then just about everything needed for this process was made from scratch from within the swamp or close-by-ish.

With one exception: I drone'd in Pressure Conversion Cubes that I was making elsewhere for the Nuclear Pasta that's required for the Singularity Cells. Having to make Radio Control Units and Fused Modular Frames from scratch on top of everything else just would've tipped this over the breaking point for me personally.

And that's that. Probably the biggest power plant I'll ever want to make in Satisfactory, at least on my own in single-player. I've taken the gauntlet and thrown it back. And now I have more than enough power to finish the rest of the game.

Thanks for reading! I worked way too hard on this whole project.

(Also, for those who may be looking at this flow and thinking, "Holy crap, you'll need hundreds of Reanimated SAM and thus thousands of SAM!" - here's a pro tip: Somersloops. Overclock the Constructors making your Reanimated SAM to max and then throw in 1 Somersloop. Instantly improves the recipe from 4:1 to 2:1. I'm dead certain this was an intended part of SAM balancing, because holy crap there's just not enough of it on the map otherwise.)

[WESKER'S REPORT / EXTRA]

A very intriguing incident . . . A series of bizarre murder cases have been occurring at a wintry village in the rural Caucasus region of Russia. The villagers there are clamoring about a legendary monster, "Almas", having risen from the dead . . . This wretched state of affairs effortlessly reminds me of those initial bizarre cases in Raccoon Forest. Three kilometers away from that village there stands an antiquated chemical plant built during the Soviet era, ownership of which, according to our investigation, currently lies with a prestigious European aristocrat. Foreign capital appears to have been invested five years ago for undertaking major underground development. Geological surveys reveal the presence of solid bedrock, perfect for constructing a certain kind of facility. It would seem as though we've solved the puzzle. Umbrella has shamelessly clung to life in the five years since Raccoon's annihilation. Despite facing accusations of leaking the virus along with their stock prices crashing, they unfurled the trial with a campaign claiming it all to be a U.S. Government conspiracy, which has been successful in stalling for time until their eventual death sentence. Fortunate for Umbrella, then, that they had been colluding with the government from the beginning. A state naturally has secrets of its own that can be dusted off, and their survival tactic was to sell those off piece by piece to the court and mass media in order to foment public skepticism. Something akin to madness lurks more or less within every person and organization, even among nations. The most deranged in that incident, however, was none other than Umbrella. A simple-minded Umbrella is exhibiting signs of a revival. B.O.W.s are starting to overrun war zones. They are supplying those B.O.W.s as weapons. We've also received reports that, beneath the surface, Umbrella have arranged a framework for manufacturing bioweapons while operating ships to transport them. The time has come. They tinker with the t-Virus, cultivate mutant organisms, then sell them. Moreover, even if they were to yield certain results, with their capacity for imagination incapable of treating the virus as anything more than a vector for bioweapon production, they will only end up exposing their defects at some other point in time. The "Philosopher's Stone" is destined for the hands of a truly worthy alchemist. The unworthy must be taken off the stage. This place is sure to be the site of Umbrella's end.

Report from Superintendent Henderson to the Commissioner requesting assistance in rounding up and arresting illicit distillers and bootleggers on Indian Reservations.

Record Group 75: Records of the Bureau of Indian AffairsSeries: Subject Numeric Correspondence Files

Cherokee, N.C., May 10, 1919. Honorable Cato Sells, Commissioner of Indian Affairs, Washington, D.C. My dear Mr. Sells, A condition has arisen on the Cherokee Reservation in regard to the manufacture and sale of whiskey which I deem it my duty to advise you of and ask for assistance in breaking it up. Prior to a few months ago I had very little trouble along this line and with the aid of the county and stage officials was able to cope with the situation, but since whiskey has arisen to the enormous price of $20 a gallon there has been an epidemic of "moonshining" and bootleging in the mountain country and I regret to say that the Cherokee Reservation is no exception. Two large lumbering industries have sprung up adjoining and near the reservation that have brought several hundred whites among whom there are a number of undesirable citizens. About one month ago an officer of the Internal Revenue Department aided by some of my employees raided a plant on the reservation located quite near the home of an Indian and destroyed it but failed to get the operators. On May 2, the sheriff of Swain County and I destroyed a plant near the house of a squaw-man but failed to get the operators, and on the 12th, inst. a party of my employees and I captured a plant in operation and the three operators two of whom are mixed blood Indians. I am confident that a number of other such plants are being operated from time to time on and near the reservation by parties so adroit and cunning in the art of "moonshining" and bootlegging making it well nigh impossible for those of us who are known to them to have a reasonable degree of success in hunting them down. In view of these facts, the thought has come to me that you might consider detailing at least two of Mr. Larson's force to aid the civil authorities and me in clearing the Cherokee Reservation of these undesirables who are debauching the Indians and nullifying to a degree the efforts we are putting forth on the reservation for good. They should come among the people in disguise prepared to stay a month or more before making any arrests. Sincerely yours, Superintendent

Section IV: The Evidences (Historical)

What is a tool and what is the nature of technology? Tools and technology are ideas, crafted to our physical world, that allow us a better grasp of completing tasks. Several trees may be of little use to someone, but once cut down, sawed into planks, and built into a house, they provide a use. It may take 5 days to fashion a tool with hand-power, out of local raw materials, but it would only take 1 day to fashion that tool if other tools were available, and you could fashion 500 of those tools in a day if you had a manufacturing plant. The amount of labor required to produce the same desired result is lowered with the aid of tools and technology. Productivity increases. To quote Nicholas Barbon, “The Use of Things, are to supply the Wants and Necessities of Man: There are Two General Wants that Mankind is born with; the Wants of the Body, and the Wants of the Mind...” [1] Not only does the usage of tools aid in production, but so does specialization of labor. If one person labors on one specific stage of a product, then that person will become proficient at it. Not only that, but there will not be the wasted time between the stages that often occurs. With one person proficient at each stage of making a product, with the aid of tools and technology, their productivity will significantly rise. There are some who doubt this, or hold skepticism towards productivity as an aim, but I hope to prove beyond a doubt that the usage of tools and technology are in fact helpful towards lowering labor required to produce items that service our needs.

In 1683, Matthew Hale described the conditions of individuals working in workshops that were set up to provide labor for the unemployed. In the mid-1600’s, 14 people working together in a mill could produce 32 yards of cloth in three weeks. These people would be divided into three weavers and spoolers, two breakers, six spinners, one fuller and burler, one sheer-man, one parter and picker. The first 32 yards would take two months, though, in a matter of becoming accustomed to machinery and the type of labor. Given that they work all year round, this would result in 17 32-yard rolls of cloth, or a total of 544 yards a year. This would amount to approximately 39 yards of cloth per person per year. [2] The amount of cloth that could be produced by a single person without the aid of specialization, or without the aid of tools, but just raw cotton, is a dismal estimation.

Nicholas Barbon describes the use of specialization and technology as it applies to economic fluctuations in the 1600’s...

The Use of Trade is to make, and provide things Necessary: Or useful for the Support, Defence, Ease, Pleasure, and Pomp of Life: Thus the Brewers, Bakers, Butchers, Poulterers, Cocks, with the Apothecaries, Surgeons, and their Dependencies provide Food, and Medicine for the support of Life: the Cutlers, Gun-smiths, Powder- makers, with their Company of Traders, make things for Defence; The Shoo-makers Sadlers, Couch, and Chair-makers, with abundance more for the Ease of Life: The Perfumers, Fidlers, Painters, and Booksellers, and all those Trades that make things to gratifie the Sense, or delight the Mind, promote Pleasure: But those Trades that are imploy’d to express the Pomp of Life, are Infinite; for, besides those that adorn Mans Body, as the Glover, Hosier, Hatter, Semstriss, Taylor, and many more, with those that make the Materials to Deck it; as Clothier, Silk-Weaver, Lace-Maker, Ribbon-Weaver, with their Assistance of Drapers, Mercers, and Milliners, and a Thousand more: Those Trades that make the Equipage for Servants, Trappings for Horses; and those that Build, Furnish, and Adorn Houses, are innumerable. [3]

In 1690, William Petty wrote, “...one Man by Art may do as much work, as many without it; viz, one Man with a Mill can grind as much Corn, as twenty can pound in a Mortar; one Printer can make as many Copies, as an Hundred Men can write by hand...” [4] and elsewhere he has written, “...a Windmill may he set up, and hy its heing moist and vaporous, there is always wind stirring over it, by which advantage the labor of many thousand Hands is saved, forasmuch as a Mill made by one Man in half a year, will do as much Labor, as four Men for Five Years together.” [5] Of the combination of men, he has written, “Those who have the command of the Sea Trade, may Work at easier Freight with more profit, than others at greater: for as Cloth must be cheaper made, when one Cards, another Spins, another Weaves, another Draws, an- other Dresses, another Presses and Packs; than when all the Operations above-mentioned, were clumsily performed by the same hand...” [6] Of those who are not among the society of men, he has written, “...those who live in Solitary places, must be their own Soldiers, Divines, Physicians, and Lawyers; and must have their Houses stored with necessary Provisions (like a Ship going upon a long Voyage,) to the great wast, and needless expence of such Provisions.” [7] In the 1700’s, David Hume wrote...

When a nation abounds in manufactures and mechanic arts, the proprietors of land, as well as the farmers, study agriculture as a science, and redouble their industry and attention. The superfluity, which arises from their labour, is not lost; but is exchanged with manufactures for those commodities, which men’s luxury now makes them covet. By this means, land furnishes a great deal more of the necessaries of life, than what suffices for those who cultivate it. [8]

Also in the 1700’s, Thomas Paine wrote, “...the natural state is without those advantages which flow from agriculture, arts, science and manufactures.” [9] In 1767, James Steuart wrote the book “An Inquiry into the Principles of Political Economy,” of which he gave countless examples of the usage of technology aiding production. With the use of technology, he has written, “I now suppose man to add his labour and industry to the natural activity of the soil: so far, as by this he produces an additional quantity of food, so far he lays a foundation for the maintenance of an additional number.” [10] — “...this [farming] will prove a more certain and more extensive fund of subsistence, than the precarious productions of spontaneous fruits, which cannot be increased at discretion, and in proportion to demand...” [11] — “Another advantage of cities is, the necessity arising from thence of having great roads, and these again prove a considerable encouragement to agriculture.” [12] — “...the making of roads and navigable canals must advance population, as they contribute to the advancement of agriculture.” [13] In general, on the theory of using technology to aid production, he has said, “Is it not plain, that when the earth is not improved, it cannot produce so much nourishment for man as when it is?” [14] and, “...the necessity of introducing every method of abridging labour and expence, in order to supply the wants of luxurious mankind, is absolutely indispensable, according to modern policy, according to experience, and according to reason.” [15] Pointing out a specific example of this policy, he writes, “...by using the spade and rake, instead of the plough and harrow, the lands of our island might be brought to produce with more abundance...” [16] On the hypothetical example that society was not allowed to use technology or tools, he writes, “Were the earth therefore uncultivated, the numbers of mankind would not exceed the proportion of the spontaneous fruits which she offers for their immediate use, or for that of the animals which might be the proper nourishment of man.” [17]

In 1815, Thomas Malthus wrote, “There is no person in the least acquainted with political economy, but must be aware that the advantages resulting from the division of labour, as applicable to nations as well as individuals, depend solely and entirely on the power of exchanging subsequently the products of labour.” [18] and elsewhere, “...if merely the best modes of cultivation, now in use in some parts of Great Britain, were generally extended, and the whole country was brought to a level, in proportion to its natural advantages of soil and situation, by the further accumulation and more equable distribution of capital and skill; the quantity of additional produce would be immense, and would afford the means of subsistence to a very great increase of population.” [19]

Also in the year 1815, Jean-Charles-Leonard Simonde de Sismondi wrote, “Thus men, combined in society, produced more than if each had laboured separately; and they preserve better what they have produced, because they feel the value of it better.” [20] Speaking of mankind, he wrote, “It invents machines, in which the wind, the fall of water, the expansion of steam, are substituted for the power of limbs...” [21] Of society, he writes, “All men are mutually necessary to each other.” [22] Specifically citing one example, he says, “The invention of the stocking frame, by means of which one man does as much work as a hundred did before, was a benefit for humanity, only because, at the same time, the progress of civilization, of population, and of wealth, increased the number of consumers.” [23] In a bit of a lengthier passage, he wrote...

Exchange first arose from superabundance: “Give me that article, which is of no service to you, and would be useful to me,” said one of the contacting parties, “and I will give you this in return, which is of no service to me, and would be useful to you.” Present utility was not, however, the sole measure of things exchanged. Each estimated for himself the selling price, or the trouble and time bestowed in the production of his own commodity, and compared it with the buying price, or the trouble and time necessary for procuring the required commodity by his own efforts; and no exchange could take place till the two contacting parties, on calculating the matter, had each discovered that it was better thus to procure the commodity wanted than to make it for himself. This accidental advantage soon pointed out to both a constant source of advantage in trading, whenever the one offered an article which he excelled in making, for an article which the other excelled in making; for each excelled in what he made often, each was unskillful and slow at what he made but seldom. Now, the more exclusively they devoted themselves to one kind of work, the more dexterity did they acquire in it, the more effectually did they succeed in rendering it easy and expeditious. This observation produced the division of trades; the husbandman quickly perceived, that he could not make as many agricultural tools by himself, in a month, as the blacksmith would make for him in a day. The same principle which at first separated the trades of the husbandman, shepherd, smith, and weaver, continued to separate those trades into an indefinite number of departments. Each felt that, by simplifying the operation committed to him, he would perform it in a manner still more speedy and perfect. The weaver renounced the business of spinning and dyeing; the spinning of hemp, cotton, wool, and silk, became each separate employment; weavers were still farther subdivided, according to the fabric and the destination of their stuffs; and at every subdivision, each workman, directing his attention to a single object, experienced an increase in his productive powers. In the interior of each manufactory, this division was again repeated, and still with the same success. Twenty workmen all laboured at the same thing, but each made it undergo a different operation: and the twenty workmen found that they had accomplished twenty times as much work as when each had laboured separately. [24] .... The increasing division of labour forms, as we have seen, the chief cause of increase in its productive powers; each makes better what he is constantly engaged in making, and when, at length, his whole labour is reduced to the simplest operation, he comes to perform it with such ease and rapidity, that the eye cannot make us comprehend how the address of man should arrive at such precision and promptitude. Often also this division leads to the discovery, that as the workman is now worth nothing more than a machine, a machine may in fact supply his place. [25] ... The application of science to art is not limited to the invention of machinery; its result is the discovery of raw materials, dyeing ingredients, preservative methods more sure and economical. It has produced better work at a cheaper rate; it has protected the health of labourers, as well as their produce; and its effect in augmenting wealth has almost always been beneficial to humanity. [26]

In 1825, Thomas Hodgskin, a staunch and valiant defender of the oppressed, would write, “By our increased skill and knowledge, labour is now probably ten times more productive than it was two hundred years ago...” [27] and “...since Mr Watt’s improvements on the steam engine one man can perform as much work with these instruments as ten men did before.” [28] In a lengthy section, he would write...

Fixed capital consists of the tools and instruments the labourer works with, the machinery he makes and guides, and the buildings he uses either to facilitate his exertions or to protect their produce. Unquestionably by using these instruments man adds wonderfully to his power. Without a hand saw, a portion of fixed capital, he could not cut a tree into planks; with such an instrument he could, though it would cost him many hours or days; but with a sawmill he could do it in a few minutes. Every man must admit that by means of instruments and machines the labourer can execute tasks he could not possibly perform without them; that he can perform a greater quantity of work in a given time, and that he can perform the work with greater nicety and accuracy than he could possibly do had he no instruments and machines. [29] [...] Whatever division of labour exists, and the further it is carried the more evident does this truth become, scarcely any individual completes of himself any species of produce. Almost any product of art and skill is the result of joint and combined labour. So dependent is man on man, and so much does this dependence increase as society advances, that hardly any labour of any single individual, however much it may contribute to the whole produce of society, is of the least value but as forming a part of the great social task. In the manufacture of a piece of cloth, the spinner, the weaver, the bleacher and the dyer are all different persons. All of them except the first is dependent for his supply of materials on him, and of what use would his thread be unless the others took it from him, and each performed that part of the task which is necessary to complete the cloth? [30]

In 1830, Nassau Senior would give a lecture to a university, in which he would state, “I was shown at Birmingham a small screw, which, in the manufacture of corkscrews, performed the work of fifty-nine men; with its assistance one man could cut a spiral groove in as many corkscrew shanks as sixty men could have cut in the same time with the tools previously in use.” [31] In a longer section, he would write...

I do not believe that there exists upon record a single instance in which the whole annual produce has been diminished by the use of inanimate machinery. Partly in consequence of the expense of constructing the greater part of machinery being defrayed out of profits or rent, and partly in consequence of the great proportion which the productive powers of machinery bear to the expense of its construction, its use is uniformly accompanied by an enormous increase of production. The annual consumption of cotton wool in this country, before the introduction of the spinning jenny, did not amount to 100,000 lbs.; it now amounts to 190,000,000. Since the power-loom came into use, the quantity of cotton cloth manufactured for home consumption has increased from 227,000,000 of yards (the average annual amount between the years 1816 and 1820), to 400,000,000 of yards (the annual average from 1824 to 1828 (Huskisson’s Speech, 1830). The number of copies of books extant at any one period before the invention .of the printing-press, was probably smaller than that which is now produced in a single day. [32]

The 1800’s marked the greatest development that political economy would receive. It would be the same century that the philosophy of Karl Marx would rise. In one of his pamphlets, in 1847, he would write...

In the process of production, human beings work not only upon nature, but also upon one another. They produce only by working together in a specified manner and reciprocally exchanging their activities. In order to produce, they enter into definite connections and relations to one another, and only within these social connections and relations does their influence upon nature operate — i.e., does production take place. [33]

It would be in the year 1848 that Marx would write the magnificent “Manifesto of the Communist Party.” In it, he would write...

The bourgeoisie, during its rule of scarce one hundred years, has created more massive and more colossal productive forces than have all preceding generations together. Subjection of nature’s forces to man, machinery, application of chemistry to industry and agriculture, steam navigation, railways, electric telegraphs, clearing of whole continents for cultivation, canalization or rivers, whole populations conjured out of the ground — what earlier century had even a presentiment that such productive forces slumbered in the lap of social labor? [34]

A partner in many of Marx’s works, Friedrich Engels would offer his contribution to the idea of political economy. In 1876, he would write...

Mastery over nature began with the development of the hand, with labour, and widened man’s horizon at every new advance. He was continually discovering new, hitherto unknown properties in natural objects. On the other hand, the development of labour necessarily helped to bring the members of society closer together by increasing cases of mutual support and joint activity, and by making clear the advantage of this joint activity to each individual. [35]

In 1899, Thorsten Veblen would discuss the rise of civilization, writing, “With the use of tools the possibility of his acquiring a different disposition gradually began, but even then the circumstances favoring the growth of a contentious disposition supervened only gradually and partially.” [36] In 1902, John McDowell would write an article discussing the life of a miner. In it, he that a miner could procure twelve to fifteen tons of coal, each day, with the aid of modernized equipment. [37] In 1910, a collection of articles by Henry Demarest Lloyd would be published (seven years after his death) in a book entitled, “The Lords of Industry.” In it, he wrote, “Though coal is an article of commerce greater in volume than any other natural product in the United States carried on railroads, amounting to not less than 330,000,000 tons a year; and though the appliances for its transportation have been improved and the cost cheapened every year, so that it can be handled with less cost and risk than almost any other class of freight...” [38] In 1930, L.F. Giblin would deliver an inaugural speech in Australia, saying...

The economist tells him that his real wages are six times what his father had in England a hundred years ago. The economist may further tell him that this has been made possible, not by his combined bargaining power, but by the increased productivity of industry through advances of knowledge and technique, and that he is getting only the same proportionate share of production as a hundred years ago.... [the] hydro-electric plant [to the]...bush saw-mill. [39]

The authors of the past, covering all centuries, have universally confirmed the efficiency of technology and tools in accomplishing labor. By using a pickaxe instead of bare hands, or a rock, a person will more effectively mine coal, and by using great, massive machines instead of a pickaxe, a person will mine coal even more effectively. The same analogy can be compared to any other field: agriculture, manufacturing, among all other industries. While it is confirmed by a great deal of authors of the past, the question of the efficiency of machinery and technology, of all forms that it make take, in our modern world, is still unanswered. It is in the next section that I hope to answer this question.

since I haven’t worked on it in ages, here’s a basic ah desc of my three spec bio worlds so far because e (low quality lol)

the first one is a planet orbiting a binary sun- and therefore has a higher ambient radiation level than earth- in a period similar with the Carboniferous period, with loads of sunny cloudy misty jungles, and sprawling moist swamps- and crazy extreme mountains. There wre crazy messed up bacteria and diseases on said planet, and giant fungi. Way Higher oxygen levels, and slightly higher gravity. It has no moons. The sentient species there is a reptilian hexapod race (tribal stage- no metal working yet)- non humanoid- who can breath underwater, and are disease resistant and nomaid.. The second one is almost entirely an ocean, and rather warm, with a few small islands speckled here and there. Instead of traditional seasons, they have a hurricane season, two in between seasons, and calm season- and during each season the tides all seem to go in a different cardinal direction. This planet had plenty of crazy aquatic biomes, promoting diverse aquatic life. It orbits A star similar to earth’s, and has over a dozen small moons orbiting it. Its gravity is pretty much the same as earth’s. Their sentient species are a semi nomadic aquatic humanoid race- with two subspecies. The first one are the nomadic semi landwellers, who live on land during the calm season, and follow the tides wherever they bring them in the other seasons- and the second subspecies lives deeper underwater, on the floors on the shallower oceans, and aren’t nomadic. They are in a early medieval stage. The third planet was once lush- orbiting an older star, and orbited by two moons. But the space-farer six armed partially humanoid insectoid race on it (who doesn’ really colonize other planets, but they do mine them) has utterly destroyed the ecosystem with the over manufacturing of things- the smog so thick sun doesn’t reach the ground any longer, and the air so acidic that the water is no longer drinkable to any other race. If it weren’t for how hardy these insectoids were, the air itself would choke them. Literally everyone lives in extreme poverty- and the average lifespan is mid twenties- as they toll away for their Leader- the only one of them whose wings aren’ surgically removed, and he’s lived for centuries (which was normal before the pollution and near inability to grow plants that have much nutrients in it. As its a much older planet, there’s barley any mountains, and little geological shifting (ie: earthquakes). The oceans are practically dried up, only a few heavily acidic lakes remaining.

So You Want to Grow Strawberries

Strawberries, unlike many popular garden crops, are perennials, so before you even begin planting them, it’s worth considering where they’re going to go. Where are the walking paths through your garden? What’s around the strawberries – will you have enough space to get in and weed them? Enough space to get around them to mow? Strawberries reproduce most commonly via runners – special stems that grow from the mother plant and root in the dirt around them to form daughter plants – which means that you will need clear access all around the plant to keep them from staging a takeover.

If you’re growing strawberries to eat, it’s also worth considering how many strawberries you believe you or your household can consume. Some strawberries bear fruit all at once and others a little at a time, but almost all varieties have been selectively bred for high yields. Some sources I���ve found say that one plant can produce up to three pounds of fruit per season – and many manufacturers will sell plants as bare roots in a multi-pack. When I first bought strawberries, I found them in packs of 25 roots and purposefully decided not to plant them all, both for space considerations and because I knew there was no way my household could consume 75 pounds of strawberries in a season.

Special Concerns

As mentioned, strawberries reproduce by runners and are known to be fairly aggressive in their growth. Care will need to be taken to remove the runners when new plants are not wanted. Additionally, it’s worth noting that – while strawberries are perennials, they are not immortal and often experience a drop-off in productivity within a few years of being planted. The goal then, or at least what I’m shooting for, is to curate enough daughter plants to replace the aging mother plants while not allowing so many daughter plants that you lose control of your strawberry patch.

Second, strawberries have shallow root systems. This means they’re sensitive to drought (if the top level of soil dries out, so do they) and excessive heat (same deal). They, therefore, have high watering needs and need to be checked to make sure they’re not suffering. I’ve seen recommendations for drip irrigation methods, but for my home garden, I’m just going to go out at night with a watering can.

How to Plant

This is for folks who already know what variety they’re going to plant. For others, please check out my strawberry variety post.

There are a couple of ways to plant strawberries in the home garden. The way I picked was the matted row system - which the internet tells me is 18 inches apart in rows 3-4 feet apart. I’m dealing with limited space and also a lot of plants, so I will actually be planting 12 inches apart in rows 2 feet apart. The risk I run here is having anemic plants, but I think that should be alleviated by the fact that strawberries are aggressive growers.

In PA strawberries are planted in April, but check your local extension for more specific information relating to your zone.

How to Care

The first year you plant strawberries you should remove all flowers to ensure the plant is focused on root growth. Now, strawberries are perennials but they aren’t immortal either - you can expect to get four to five years out of any given plant. So, the general cycle here is

Year 1: Leave the plant alone

Year 2: Harvest strawberries, remove all runners

Year 3: Allow plant to set some number of runners to grow daughter plants (these begin at year 1 next year)

Year 4: Assess if its worth keeping the plant one more year, or remove plant entirely to allow room for new daughter plants

Otherwise, provide general care - weeding and fertilizing if necessary (get a soil test!) - taking care not to damage the strawberry’s shallow root system. During the winter straw should be placed as mulch to protect the dormant plants, which should be removed in March before the strawberries begin to grow.

Vauxhall motors

The global shortage of computer chips has had a significant impact on the car industry and is unlikely to improve before the end of the year, according to Vauxhall Motors.

Vauxhall's managing director, Paul Wilcox, told the BBC that the industry was facing a "problem" for the next two or three months.

However, he insisted there was no need for a major overhaul of supply chains.

The UK has suffered a shortage of semiconductors for the past year.

It was triggered by the Covid crisis. In the early stages of the pandemic, there were dramatic cuts in the car and commercial vehicle production. This was followed by a surge in output when the first wave of lockdowns came to an end.

But as car factories tried to ramp up their output, they found that the available supplies of semiconductors had already been snapped up by other industries, notably the consumer electronics sector, which was experiencing a boom in sales.

·Why is there a chip shortage?

·Toyota to cut production by 40% amid chip crisis

·Car production hit by 'pandemic' and chip shortage

Modern vehicles can have hundreds of chips on board. They are used in engine controls, entertainment systems, safety mechanisms, instrument clusters, and so on, so the shortage has forced manufacturers around the world to curtail production.

Vauxhall is no exception. Production at both of its UK plants in Ellesmere Port and Luton has been disrupted at different times. According to Mr Wilcox, the effects are still being felt.

"It has obviously suppressed our ability to manufacture," Mr Wilcox told the BBC, speaking at the Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham many business listings.

Vauxhall Motors' managing director Paul Wilcox says carmakers rely heavily on "just-in-time" delivery systems

"If you look at the industry in the UK this month, commercial vehicle sales, which have been hugely buoyant this year - 59% up - this month they're 20% down, and obviously a large part of that is because of supply shortages."

He added that parent company Stellates' decision to invest £100m on building a new range of electric vans at Vauxhall's troubled plant in Ellesmere Port was "massively important" for the factory and its workforce.

Motor manufacturers rely heavily on so-called "just-in-time" delivery systems - which mean that parts are delivered to factories when they are needed, rather than being stockpiled.

This eliminates the need for expensive warehousing but means that if parts do not appear when they are required, factories can grind to a halt. But Mr Wilcox said he saw no need for a major overhaul of supply chains as a result of the current crisis business listings.

"I don't think it exposes a problem," he said. "I think it just illustrates that when you have a crisis, you can be quite vulnerable."

He added that the car industry is very much "based on lean manufacturing".

"I don't think that will change in the short to medium term - may be one thing we need to be careful of is maintaining more stability in terms of our contractual arrangements, but I don't see a fundamental shift in the way we manage the business," he said.

Mr Wilcox also applauded the recent decision by Vauxhall's parent company Stellates to build a new range of electric vans at the company's plant at Ellesmere Port in Cheshire.

The factory, which employs 1000 people, had been at risk of closure.

"It's obviously massively important," he said. "The investment of £100m obviously gives surety of jobs, gives stability in terms of the workforce and stability to the supply chain, which in that part of the UK is obviously very important."

But the move, he said, would also protect the long-term future of the plant, which will be building electric vehicles at a time when the industry as a whole is moving rapidly towards electrification free business listings.

What is Sustainable Clothing? | Eco-Friendly & Ethical Fashion Explained

What is Sustainable Clothing?

Sustainable clothing refers to garments that are designed, produced, and distributed with minimal negative impact on the environment, society, and economy. It is an integral part of the sustainable fashion movement, which aims to transform the traditional fashion industry into one that prioritises longevity, ethical labour practices, and environmental stewardship.

At its core, sustainable clothing is about more than just the final product. It encompasses every stage of a garment's lifecycle, from sourcing raw materials to production, transportation, and eventual disposal. This holistic approach ensures that clothing not only meets the needs of the present but also protects the resources and well-being of future generations.

The Principles of Sustainable Clothing

Sustainable clothing is characterised by three core principles:

Environmental Responsibility Sustainable clothing manufacturers prioritise eco-friendly materials and processes. They use organic or recycled fabrics such as organic cotton, hemp, and recycled polyester, which require fewer resources and cause less harm to the environment. These practices help reduce carbon emissions, conserve water, and minimise waste.

Ethical Production Ethical clothing manufacturers ensure fair wages, safe working conditions, and respect for workers' rights. This approach aims to address the exploitation of labour, which is unfortunately common in fast fashion.

Longevity and Circularity Sustainable fashion emphasises durability and versatility. By designing garments meant to last, these manufacturers encourage consumers to buy fewer items and keep them for longer. Some eco-friendly clothing manufacturers also offer recycling programs to ensure that worn-out clothes are repurposed instead of ending up in landfills.

Why Sustainable Clothing Matters

The fashion industry is one of the largest contributors to global pollution. From excessive water usage in textile production to the disposal of non-biodegradable fabrics, traditional manufacturing practices take a significant toll on the environment. Choosing sustainable ethical clothing manufacturers clothing reduces this impact, as it promotes responsible sourcing and production methods.

Additionally, ethical clothing manufacturers focus on the well-being of workers, ensuring that the people behind your clothes are treated with dignity and respect. This shift towards ethical and eco-friendly practices helps create a fairer global economy.

How to Identify Sustainable Clothing

Check for Certifications Look for certifications like GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), Fair Trade, or OEKO-TEX, which indicate that the garment meets specific environmental and ethical standards.

Research the Brand Many sustainable clothing manufacturers are transparent about their processes. Check their websites or product tags for information on materials, labor practices, and sustainability initiatives.

Focus on Quality over Quantity Investing in well-made, durable pieces from eco-friendly clothing manufacturers ensures your wardrobe is both sustainable and stylish.

The Role of Sustainable Clothing Manufacturers

Sustainable clothing manufacturers are pivotal in transforming the fashion industry by prioritising environmental and social responsibility. They use eco-friendly materials like organic cotton, recycled fibres, and plant-based alternatives to minimise environmental impact. Ethical practices, including fair wages and safe working conditions, are central to their operations. By adopting energy-efficient processes, reducing water usage, and managing waste responsibly, they lower the carbon footprint of garment production. Additionally, these manufacturers drive innovation, promote transparency, and encourage circular fashion through recycling and durability-focused designs. Their efforts empower consumers to make conscious choices, fostering a greener, fairer, and more sustainable future for the fashion industry.

How Consumers Can Support Sustainable Fashion

Buy Less, Choose WiselyOpt for high-quality garments that align with sustainable practices.

Support Sustainable BrandsChoose products from eco-friendly clothing manufacturers and spread the word about their efforts.

Recycle or DonateDispose of unwanted clothes responsibly by donating them or participating in recycling programs.

Conclusion

Sustainable clothing is more than a trend—it’s a commitment to a better future. By supporting sustainable, eco-friendly, and ethical clothing manufacturers, we can reduce environmental harm and promote fair practices in the fashion industry. As consumers, every choice we make has the power to create a positive ripple effect. Let’s choose sustainability and pave the way for a greener, fairer world.
