Hi! Welcome to Global Swarming: the website. As you may or may not know, this site is being launched on the occasion of the completion of the book, by the same name. In the spirit of the project, and in the interest of spreading these Earth [re]generation ideas far and wide, I have decided to make the same content and illustrations from the book available for free online!
There is one notable difference between the book and the website, however. I will be updating the website with new cards every once in the while, as this is a growing compendium of strategies to regreen our spaceship Earth. Unfortunately, that’s not really possible with books. But, when I have made enough cards to fill another volume, I hopefully will get the chance to publish a Global Swarming #2. Until then, please check back here once in a blue moon for new cards.
