#sustainablefuture

This project is still in its early stages and is mostly a place for research, discussion, and imagining better ways humans could live in the future. I’m documenting ideas about sustainability, community design, science, philosophy, and how society might evolve if we switch to this way of living.

If any part of this project interests you, you’re welcome to reach out.

You might be interested in:

• the philosophy behind it

• pantheism and spiritual ideas about nature

• solarpunk and sustainable futures

• community design and intentional communities

• science, medicine, and research

• engineering and sustainable technology

• urban planning and architecture

• psychology, sociology, or human behavior

• agriculture, herbalism, and food systems

• female health, matriarchal societies, herbalism

You don’t have to be an expert in anything. If you’re just curious, want to talk about ideas, or want to help think through parts of the project, that’s enough.

Also, keep in mind that I’m not a professional in these fields either. I’m researching and learning as I go, and this space is meant to be a place where we can learn and explore ideas together.

I’m especially hoping to connect with people younger who are curious about the future and interested in imagining new ways communities could work.

DMs are open if you want to talk about any part of the project, ask questions, or share ideas.

Folklore is more than songs, costumes and dances. It is a memory of how humans once lived with the land, with seasons, with animals and with nature.

The 60th International Folklore Festival in Zagreb celebrates the resilience of heritage — but maybe the greatest challenge of our time is asking a new question:

What kind of heritage do we want to pass on to the future?

Imagine an artistic action that does not interrupt tradition, but expands it. A message that says: protecting culture also means protecting the living world that surrounds us.

Animals have always been part of human stories — in farming traditions, myths, songs and everyday life. But modern society has created a distance between people and the animals who share our planet. Industrial systems often hide the reality behind our food, clothing and consumption.

Maybe the next chapter of folklore should include a new voice: compassion.

Not a protest against tradition, but a conversation with it.

A celebration where humans, animals and nature are not separated — but understood as parts of one shared story.

Because heritage is not only what we inherit.

To start with, Wild Deodorant hardly works. Not only does it leave white stain on all your clothes and not just the black ones, half the scents crumble, it doesn't tackle what actually makes you smell. Sweat itself doesn't smell: the bacteria that break down the sweat smell. Wild Deodorant is not an antiperspirant and does nothing to change the pH or kill the bacterial enzymes on your skin, which is why the scent doesn't last 2 hours.

Early in 2025, Wild Deodorant was bought by Unilever: a company that not only has sold over 89 billion single use plastic sachets, but also has consistently delved into animal cruelty, after repeatedly promising "alternatives to animal testing", despite keeping chickens in tiny cages to harvest eggs as cheaply a possible.

Wild has used their aesthetically pleasing packaging to create a false sense of security in the morals of their brand. Their constant self praising of reusable cartriges is directly contrasted by them pushing a new deodorant case every month. In 2026 alone, 6 new deodorant cases have been released, as of May 15th.

The global hydrogen generation market is valued at USD 163.5 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow to approximately USD 285.3 billion by 2035, expanding at a CAGR of 5.73%. While renewable energy sources like solar and wind continue to dominate headlines, hydrogen is increasingly being recognized as a critical piece of the global decarbonization puzzle.

What makes hydrogen particularly important is its versatility. It can be used across industries that are traditionally difficult to decarbonize, including steel manufacturing, chemicals, aviation, shipping, heavy transportation, and power generation. As countries work toward ambitious net-zero goals, hydrogen is emerging as a practical pathway to reduce emissions without compromising industrial productivity.

One of the most significant shifts happening today is the move from conventional hydrogen production methods toward cleaner alternatives. Currently, most hydrogen is still produced from natural gas and coal, processes that generate substantial carbon emissions. However, governments and private investors are accelerating efforts to scale green hydrogen production through renewable-powered electrolysis and blue hydrogen technologies that incorporate carbon capture systems.

The investment momentum behind hydrogen is remarkable. Global committed investments in clean hydrogen projects have surpassed USD 112 billion, with more than 1,700 projects announced worldwide. Although some early-stage projects have been canceled as the market matures, the overall trend points toward a stronger and more commercially viable hydrogen ecosystem.

Artificial intelligence is also beginning to play a transformative role in hydrogen production. Advanced AI systems are helping operators optimize electrolysis processes, improve energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, and enhance predictive maintenance. These capabilities are becoming increasingly important as companies seek to make green hydrogen economically competitive with traditional production methods.

Regional growth patterns reveal where the industry's future may be headed. Asia Pacific is expected to remain the dominant market through 2035, supported by large-scale investments in China, Japan, South Korea, India, and Australia. North America and Europe are also investing heavily in hydrogen infrastructure, production facilities, and transportation networks as part of broader clean energy strategies.

Several key factors continue to drive market expansion:

• Growing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions • Government incentives and hydrogen-focused policies • Rising demand for clean fuels in transportation and industry • Increasing investments from energy companies and institutional investors • Technological advancements in electrolysis and carbon capture solutions

Despite the optimism, challenges remain. Hydrogen storage and transportation infrastructure require significant capital investment, and production costs for green hydrogen remain higher than conventional alternatives. However, ongoing technological innovation and economies of scale are expected to gradually close this gap.

The next decade will likely determine how large a role hydrogen ultimately plays in the global energy transition. If current investment trends continue, hydrogen could evolve from a promising alternative fuel into a foundational component of the world's low-carbon energy system.

The question is no longer whether hydrogen has potential the question is how quickly the industry can scale to meet global demand.

Air pollution is a major contributor to the damage to the air we breathe. It also plays a major role in warming the Earth. When air is polluted, it often contains harmful gases and small particles emitted by vehicles 🚗, factories 🏭, coal, oil, and the burning of forests 🔥.

Many of these pollutants are called greenhouse gases. Important examples are carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. These gases accumulate in the atmosphere around our planet. Normally, sunlight ☀️ reaches the Earth and heats its surface. After the surface is heated, some of that heat is released back into space.

However, greenhouse gases act as a blanket around the Earth 🌍. They trap some of the heat that would normally escape. As more polluted air fills the atmosphere, the blanket thickens. This traps more heat in the atmosphere, causing the planet's temperature to gradually rise. This process is called global warming.

The main cause of this increase in greenhouse gases is human activity. Cars, planes ✈️, power plants ⚡ and industrial activities burn large amounts of fossil fuels. These activities release large amounts of carbon dioxide into the air. Deforestation also contributes to this problem because trees 🌳 normally absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

As the Earth warms, many environmental changes occur. The ice on the polar regions and glaciers begins to melt 🧊. Sea levels rise 🌊, which can threaten coastal areas. The nature of the weather also changes, causing stronger storms ⛈️, heat waves 🌡️ and droughts in some parts of the world.

Safe and secure, living in a small house surrounded by nature, there’s a garden directly outside the door, there’s a creek five minutes away, the nearest town is far away, the animals are calm, I can read a book in a stream of sunlight, my cat lounges by the window, I have a bird feeder and a bug hotel, life is good
