Casaubon’s Book: Community Issues - Thinking About Adaptation

Casaubon’s Book » Blog Archive » Community Issues - Thinking About Adaptation
Today is the last day of the Adapting in Place class, and getting to this point on the syllabus has me thinking about what I’d do differently next time. The class was designed to help people who expected or were fairly sure they’d be staying more or less where they are. And most of the participants had big questions about what they should do personally, in their particular place. So it seemed logical to get that stuff started - to deal with the real basics, food, water, shelter, heat, cooling. But spending the larger part of a month focusing on how to get your home adapted makes it seem like our overarching focus should be on private homes, when, in fact, that’s just what we were talking about for one month, when the overarching project is not just making our own homes secure, but securing our communities.
