African countries are asserting more control over their resources and the exploitation of them. It has many companies who have had a free ride in the past with only the odd bribe to be paid to maintain access to be budgeted for.
Free Manual Wheelchair Reference Models (Version 2)
I've updated the wheelchair models I released for last year's Disability pride month to include adjustable shaders/materials that carry over into programs like Clip Studio Paint for folks who just want to use them as reference, and (what I hope is) a clearer guide on how to use, import/export and make alterations to them!
Each chair is designed to suit different kinds of characters with different disabilities and lifestyles. The chairs available right now are:
2 Active urban-style chairs (one of which includes a rear-mounted power assist)
1 off-road active chair
1 children's wheelchair
and 1 standard "hospital" wheelchair.
and I'm planning to add 2 more by the end of disability pride month (2025)

Or you can download the pack https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Tzm_T1V-Nc5x8RrTt9ctJM1wPCBAg1OY/view?usp=sharing
Included in each download is:
the original .blend file for each wheelchair model
an .obj and .mtl file for each chair that can be imported into other 3D modelling software or into some art programs like Clip Studio Paint
A link to a user's manual that explains how to make alterations to the files for those less familiar with Blender, and how to import and save them to your Clip Studio Paint Asset/Material library on both desktop and ipad versions of CSP.
I would really like to keep updating these files and eventually include rigs for each (one of these was rigged previously, but I'm not sure what happened, it seems to have broken after one of the Blender updates)
Just like last time, they're completely free to use, with the caveat that they can't be resold or used in AI training. Credit isn't required but is greatly appreciated (as are tags so I can see art that used them!)

Rethinking #overpopulation: why Malthus was wrong about global resources?
On #WorldPopulationDay, it’s worth rethinking the idea of overpopulation. The issue isn't the number of people - it's how our systems manage #resources and inequality.
Want to read more? Check out our latest #GeoLog: https://egu.eu/0H223O/
@praustrian Ohh yeah let’s fix #capitalism and #wealth inequality by dismantling the only institution that could people give control over #resources and regulate the ‘entrepreneurs’ like Bezoz or Musk who exploit workers - hahhaha - you think people don’t use their brain or walk the earth blindfolded? You are funny.No, you are hilariously funny. I will repeat: #tax the rich, #billionaires should not exist.

"Opportunities come not just from turning trash into treasure, but from engineering systems and products to make that a regular reality." - Futurist Jim Carroll
(Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series on 30 Megatrends, which he first outlined in his book Dancing in the Rain: How Bold Leaders Grow Stronger in Stormy Times. The trends were shared in the book as a way of demonstrating that, despite any period of economic volatility, there is always long-term opportunity to be found. The book is now in print - learn more at dancing.jimcarroll.com)
Sustainability is moving from corporate responsibility to core business strategy, despite political pushback. The circular economy, which involves turning waste streams into value, represents one of the greatest untapped opportunities of our time - a multi-trillion dollar opportunity!
Want to dig deeper? There's a full PDF here - the summary is below.
https://pdf.jimcarroll.com/Megatrend8-CircularEconomy.pdf
What's it all about? Perhaps the best example of what it is all about? Apple, at this point, essentially designs the iPhone and other products not only for sale to the consumer, but for eventual disposal, with deconstruction of returned devices for parts, materials, and more. That's called 'design for deconstruction,' and it not only makes sense from an environmental perspective, but from an economic perspective.
With that example in mind, the interesting thing is that, unlike many sustainability or other corporate responsibility initiatives, which seem to be thrown away as political sands shift, this one isn't going away. It isn't just a buzzword or a niche aspect of corporate social responsibility. It's evolving into a core business strategy.
How big an opportunity is it? Pretty big - estimates going from $339 billion in 2022 to $8 to 10 trillion by 2035!
There are a few ideas with the trend: one is designing products to last longer.
Another is to design them for deconstruction, as previously mentioned.
And a third is the integration of advanced recycling technologies into every aspect of the supply chain - so that supply chains don't just get the product to the consumer, they also take over when the consumer sends it back!
With all this in mind, there are many sector-specific opportunities.
Read the PDF for more!

Futurist Jim Carroll's book, Dancing in the Rain, is a must-read for anyone looking to discover the opportunities of tomorrow, today.

Crocheters!!! Would y'all mind dropping your favorite resources for learning to write your own patterns in the comments? I've a couple of hats I designed myself & have been trying to write out the patterns on my own, but I know from experience that some understanding of pattern writing goes a long way...
Thank y'all in advance!!
