<blockquote>“As human beings strain the limits of the natural world, we can no longer escape the knowledge that ecological collapse has been the hidden history behind the downfall of most major civilizations. Biology is indeed destiny, as the ultimate fate of our species rests upon our ability to live within the limits of the natural world. Today we are witnessing the widespread collapse of the basic life-support systems upon which all life depends. How do we set about restoring the earth?” The Bioneers workshop, San Francisco 1996 </blockquote><a href="https://www.replimat.org/">Replimat </a>is creating a world which each person can change to suit their unique needs. In this era of diminishing resources and ever-increasing global population, manufacturers need to be responsible for what they manufacture and consumers need to be responsible for what they consume. This obligation to intelligently design, create, manufacture and consume cannot be over-emphasized. A design revolution is in order. Multi-function, multi-purpose, recyclable, reusable, user friendly, simple and inexpensive. The <a href="https://wiki.replimat.org">Replimat wiki</a> documents a building system which requires only a few hand tools, is compatible with other building systems, and makes more of itself. A small number of parts are reused in many different ways to build many things most people need, including tools needed to make more parts. All Replimat parts are designed for disassembly and cradle-to-cradle reusability, and constructed wherever possible from waste or other durable, reusable, renewable, recycled and recyclable materials. Replimat components form a durable, repurposable, mult-use carbon sink for the waste streams of other processes. Component parts which cannot yet be replicated are known as vitamins. Self reproduction lowers cost, decentralizes production, localizes supply and demand, enables innovation, shortens supply lines, reduces inventory and storage requirements, and encourages the reproduction and spread of knowledge and empowerment.
