Technologies for an Eco-Technic Future

This is simply a list of technological ideas that an Eco-technic future could benefit from.

  • A quick set up solar pond kit + attachments
  • Open source standardised energy system sets -mechanical -electrical -chemical -thermal
  • Airships -transport terminals/hubs -floating buildings?
  • Integrated solar collectors and thermal storage for cooking and refrigeration
  • Expansion of clockwork and gravity devices powered by human muscle
  • Expansion of pedal power
  • Velomobile carriages/trailers -pedal rail system
  • Large scale bioremediation/phytomining combined with land rehabilitation
  • Easily replicable D.I.Y metric system kit
  • Sustainable computing -hydro -clockwork -simple electronic -wood
  • Improved aerial rope way system
  • Open source, fuel efficient cars -biofuels and electric
  • Updated sailing ships
  • More deep sea structures -trade -aquaculture
  • self-sufficient large scale food storage facilities (a modern granary)
  • Sustainable and simple manufacturing of smart/advanced materials
  • Improved and diversified multimachine
  • Expanded open source ecology factor E farms
  • Partly self-sufficient and integrated apartment buildings
  • More heavy insulation and easy construction bricks (see Earth Energy bricks)
  • New methods for treating wood
  • Expanded geographic sources of rubber
  • More passive housing techniques
  • Ultra light planes
  • Self-sufficient submarines
  • Man portable thermal batteries
  • Easily repaired wind up radio kit
  • Improved electric and hybrid rail systems
  • Advanced design furnaces -wood -charcoal -biomass -solar -electric
  • Simple and adaptable printers -paper -durabook
  • Low power and reliable water filtration
  • Low maintenance roads
  • More improvements and revolutions to basic tools, like the lerveraxe

  1. Hi Leo,

    I found your blog via your comments on the Wishlist for Krampus post on the Archdruid report. I was just wondering if you have finished your studies and if you have started working? I'm considering doing a PhD with RMIT or Melbourne Uni and was hoping you could give me some advice.

  2. Got year or 2 to go before I start working

    As for a PhD, sorry, but I can't really offer any advice.
