BAROMETER

Through Project Flamingo, The Web of Hope aims to develop a 'barometer of change' which will reflect the scale, speed and impact of the change brought about through the implementation of our Toolkits.

If you decide to follow through on any of our suggestions, or find the links and references below useful in your attempts to effect change, then please contact us and tell us how you got on (putting 'Info' in the subject field): wohadmin@thewebofhope.org

This information will be vital to the success of the project and will enable us to reflect the scale of change as accurately as possible and as close to 'real time' as we can. Thank you for getting involved.

The following are suggested links and references which support the Hopes highlighted in this journey.

CRADLE TO CRADLE DESIGN

The Cradle to Cradle approach to design exposes the inadequacy of recycling and seeks to produce materials and products which can be composted and build up the soil, or be continually 'upcycled', retaining their high quality in closed-loop industrial cycles.
