Appropedia – a new wiki for all things sustainable and green.

Here is their description of who they are and what they do:

Our vision is that all of humanity is able to work together developing and realizing rich, sustainable lives. We build the infrastructure, and help make the connections and populate free content to effect that vision. We provide the living resource library of individuals and organizations working towards a sustainable, healthier future, so that efforts can be spent evolving instead of duplicating past efforts.

We briefly capture our vision and mission in this way:

Sharing knowledge to build rich, sustainable lives.

Appropedia began in April of 2006. Six other similar sites have joined Appropedia since its inception:

  • Sustainable Development Wikia
  • WinWinWiki
  • Wikigreen.org
  • Village Earth’s ATwiki
  • HowToLiveWiki, home of the Hexayurt
  • sgoals, the site for sustainable business

So far, there are 12,569 pages of information on all things sustainable. Wow. I for one think this is awesome that a site like this is growing fast on the web.  Now if someone wants to know more about any area of living sustainably, there is this great resource to go to and learn more or if you have a lot of knowledge in a related area, just log in and post your info or add to what’s already there about a sustainable topic.

The time has come for the masses to start learning how to embrace more sustainable lifestyles and this wiki site is proving that it’s happening. Yeah!
