Alpha Lo on Water Awakening to Gaia's Voice

    • Nature

Quick recap

The active participants in this meeting were Kathryn Alexander MA, Alpha Lo, Daniel Mello-Mattos, and Mark Kroening. Kathryn and Alpha had an enlightening discussion on the interplay between biodiversity, water, and the environment. They explored the impact of
biodiversity on water and the environment, the role of different species in the food web, and the cycle of nutrients. They also touched on the concepts of
symbiosis and ecologies, and the interplay between organisms and the environment. The conversation concluded with a shared interest in the interplay between energy, order, and life.

Summary

Biodiversity, Symbiosis, and
Thermodynamics

Kathryn and Alpha had a comprehensive
discussion about their backgrounds and interests. Kathryn shared her studies in living systems and interest in systems thinking, while Alpha talked about their
work at Stable University and with the Climate Water project. They discussed the impact of biodiversity on water and the environment, with Alpha explaining
the role of different species in the food web. They also touched on the Daisy world model and the cycle of nutrients. Kathryn found the discussion enlightening
and emphasized the crucial role of biodiversity in environmental management. They further touched on the concepts of symbiosis and ecologies, leading to a
discussion on the interplay between organisms and the environment. Kathryn concluded by expressing her belief that all life is crucial and contributes in ways not yet fully understood, suggesting a connection between their discussions and his work on the fourth principle of thermodynamics.

Thermodynamics, Order, and Life's
Energy

Alpha and Kathryn discussed the concept of entropy and order in thermodynamics, with Alpha explaining that an
increase in entropy ultimately leads to a more audit state. They also explored how this concept applies to life, with Kathryn suggesting that life might be
about creating order out of chaos. Alpha further elaborated that life, like a highly ordered system, requires energy to maintain itself. The conversation
concluded without a clear resolution, but with a shared interest in the interplay between energy, order, and life.

Life-Enhancing Actions and Sustainable
Practices

Alpha and Kathryn engaged in a discussion about the interconnectedness of life, the role of plants in
generating rain and increasing biodiversity, and the potential application of this concept to address global warming. Kathryn emphasized the need to shift
focus towards more life-enhancing actions, while Alpha extended the metaphor to economic activity, highlighting the need for more diverse and sustainable
practices. They both stressed the importance of focusing on diversity and life in their work, and Alpha suggested a shift towards focusing on the growth of living systems. Kathryn expressed a preference for working with plants over robots, and they explored the concept of growing houses as a way to enhance life.

Ecosystem, Water, Climate: Education
and Replenishment

Alpha and Kathryn discussed the importance of understanding the ecosystem on land, particularly in relation to water cycles and climate. Alpha shared their work with the Climate Water Project & Regenerative Water Alliance, which aims to educate & raise
awareness about the interconnectedness of water and climate systems. Kathryn expressed interest in these topics, particularly the Water Alliance's efforts,
and shared her own project in Spokane that focuses on replenishing the aquifer. The conversation also touched on the importance of keeping water within local
communities to prevent the need for expensive & unsustainable water transportation.

Water, Fire, and Life Origins, Climate Design Project: Watershed Restoration and Vegetation Impacts & Planet, Sensors, Climate, Community were additional topics covered.
