There are many old ways to do things without many resources, no plastics, and little, if any, use of fossil fuels. The knowledge of these old ways is slowly disappearing because it is not passed on to new generations. We want to make sure the knowledge is not lost. Here we collect information on how people did everyday things before industrial mass products often made with large amounts of plastics took over. We make sure, this information is available when the current mass production is not longer functioning and people need to go back to the old ways to get their daily things done.
If you know of old ways to do everyday things you should join us in our effort to ensure this knowledge is not lost.
