[Environment-readinggroup] restarting after summer - share your own writing with the group

[Fieke]

Hi environment readers,

We had another great session talking about resourcification, and how 
this is different or relates to extractivism.

Now that we moved from reading books to reading articles, our own and 
others, the schedule keeps on shifting. We might not always use the 
mailing list to update people on the chances. So *CHECK* the critical 
infra lab website 
<https://www.criticalinfralab.net/2024/02/01/environment-reading-group/> 
for the next reading and updated schedule!

What has changed for the next two session is that we move the degrowth 
and IETF paper around. The new schedule is:

  * October 8: What might degrowth computing look like? + Strategies for
    Degrowth Computing
  * October 22: Fieke Jansen – paper on IETF; framing environmental
    concerns and sustainability solutions (email fieke for a copy) +
    Solar Protocol: Exploring Energy-Centered Design

See you in two week

Fieke
