Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 http://www.rewild.info/fieldguide/index.php?title=Main_Page The Free Field Guide To Rewilding That Anyone Can Edit Our Mission Statement: REWILD.info intends to collect and provide free access to knowledge of primitive and/or sustainable living practices through the use of the open source format of a wiki (click here to learn about the wiki). Our elders have long since disappeared. The information they held and the skills they practiced exist now only in pockets--a few books, a few schools--practiced by only a few. This site, while seemingly contradictory in principle (using modern technology to teach primitive technology), does not contradict the transmission of traditional ecological knowledge we all need for such a return to the kind of life our elders knew--any means necessary to rewild. This site forms another means for those who cannot find any other starting places or for those who feel inspired to help those with no other starting places. In time, all of this will fade, but for now we need communication and we need something to stand in for our elders (and/or an oral tradition of knowledge). This site attempts to do just that. The REWILD.info Field Guide has four major functions: This site exists for you and your community, primarily as a tool to disperse information that will help the future generations--human and other-than-human alike. Many people cannot afford to go to wilderness schools or purchase field guides, but most people can use the internet for free (at a library for example). This site will help unschoolers and low-income people have access to information that they otherwise could not afford. We provide a community, at least in some sense, to those with no local community. We enhance international rewilding communities by providing a space for cross-cultural pollination. We function as a place for people to meet and make plans concerning the crash of civilization (ie, where to go, where to meet, what to avoid, etc.) Lastly we hope to enhance and rewild the use of the English language through the encouragment, but not requirement, of writing articles in e-prime. http://www.rewild.info/fieldguide/index.php?title=Bow-drill Radiating UNCONDITIONAL LOVE & Truth To ALL who share our circle, our universe, our love, our trust. May I always be found worthy. Gratitude & Thankfulness to All of Us aSoaringHawk Look at everything as though you were seeing it either for the first or last time. Then your time on earth will be filled with joy & glory. Thank you for YOU, ALL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
