• I'm flying to [[San Francisco]] to work from [[Sunnyvale]] for a few days. As I write this I'm on a SAS A330 sitting in 51A with the seat next to me empty, the plane being about 70% full.
• I started listening to [[Right Concentration]] by [[Leigh Brasington]] (sp?) on the way to Copenhagen where I made my short connection.
• Now I've finally started properly reading the [[Fediversalist Papers]] (I've been waiting for such an occasion) and found the report immediately engrossing.
  • ...and finished :) I tried taking good enough notes to then share with the Social.coop working groups and organizing Circle.
• I'm still two hours away from San Francisco. Not much more battery left in my laptop, so maybe I'll just keep reading something else.
• I finished reading [[Thich Nhat Hanh]]'s commentary on the [[Heart Sutra]]. I enjoyed it a lot :) Thank you Thich as usual.
  • [[Mindfulness Bell]] is a journal that I'd like to check out.

• [[Read]]: [[Wasteland]]
  • In the epilogue, a bit of reflection on how we actually reduce waste.
  • Looks at [[ethical consumption]], [[zero waste]] and the [[circular economy]] with a critical eye. Them having been coopted by corporations.
  • Ultimately, his conclusion seems to be: [[degrowth]]. Consume less, produce less.
    • That doesn't really address the problems of industrial waste though.
