Hey,

Thanks so much for this submission to the Applied Hope jam - what a cool little zine, cramming in so much into so little space. I love the water pistol!

I wrote a thing called ‘In Praise of Smaller Actions’ which maybe you might be interested in:

https://medium.com/@jolindsaywalton/in-praise-of-smaller-actions-acfdbeface7f

Reducing emissions from data storage is such a complex topic - I’m trying to do some work on it, but it’s hard to know where to begin! “Delete emails” seems like the right mind-set, but are there more effective ways to start reducing your digital footprint? 

I didn’t really understand this sentence? > “Nothing worth a watering can and some seeds.”

Maybe “Nothing better than a watering can and some seeds.”?? “All it takes is a watering can and some seeds”??

If you ever decide to edit it, I have one or two small suggestions to make it flow more smoothly in English:

Until the mixture have a consistution of a glue. > Until the mixture has the consistency of glue.

 to be spreaded in order to awake the consciousness > to be spread in order to awaken the consciousness

The ecologic advices well known > Well-known ecological advice

repair instead of throw > repair instead of throwing away

turn off the electrical devices instead of put on stand by, put a sweater on instead of turn on the heating, wash your clothes at 30°C, isolate your house instead of replace your heating, always think before buying. > turn off electrical devices instead of putting them on stand by, put a sweater on instead of turning on the heating, wash your clothes at 30°C, insulate your house instead of replacing your heating, always think before buying. 

Ecologie advices less known > Lesser-known ecological advice

It's the most ecological gesture, much more than stop using his car. > It’s the most ecological gesture, much more than stopping using your car.

Each mail kept consume some energy. Delete them regularly. Avoid keeping docs in a Coud. > Each email kept consumes some energy. Delete them regularly. Avoid keeping docs in the Cloud.

Thanks again for sharing it!!

Hi, I'm glad you liked it ! 


Your article is very interesting : it's good to know the importance of smaller actions in our collective unconscious. It’s very motivating. 


Reducing emissions from data storage is a complex topic... I chose to talk about simple ways to reduce it (Mail, video, cloud).  

But, unfortunately, the interesting ways I've found are… radical... 

A low-tech chat, without third-party servers (Cloud) (The tuto is unfinished) :  https://wiki.lowtechlab.org/wiki/Tchat_-_de_1_%C3%A0_N_personnes_LowTech_et_cybe...

Lowering the image quality of an online video is interesting too. Some youtubers already post only 480p videos on their channel.


For my spelling mistakes : 

Damn! My many proofreadings were not enough to remove all my faults! 

I really thank you for your patience to check and to correct this mini-zine. 

I will correct this mini-zine as soon as possible. 


Thank you !
