Spent this morning with a team from BBC Alba. They were filming a short piece about our local currency, the Eko – pictured – for a ‘Speak Gaelic’ programme due out in early 2024.

The system is upside down!
Anti-capitalist but market-oriented organisations like #coops and #socialenterprise necessarily have an ambivalent relationship to the business development, investment, etc, legal/financial infrastructure. But they are important, because they enable people that are repelled by greed and exploitation to experience and understand the rewards of enterprise.

Tailored support is available in the UK - but it's 'a curate's egg' - good in places. There is though interesting stuff going on, like 'the Preston model' - public bodies using local small businesses, and especially co-ops and social enterprises, to supply products and deliver services, instead of dealing with multinationals. Such anti-multinational activism should be central to the environment movement.

i have a lot of ideas that never get off the ground because i'm shit at promotion. the latest is a befriending service for elderly/housebound people where someone visits & they listen & share music with each other.

@Homebrewandhacking There's a big difference. Essentially, Community Interest Companies (CICs) are one type of social enterprise legal form and they are for 'the public good'; whereas co-ops are for the benefit of their members. The best guide by far is from Co-ops UK, called Simply Legal.

Good public spaces don't *need* places to buy stuff (gasp).

But why not at least insist commercial use of public spaces be #NonProfit #SocialEnterprise like Robin Des Bois in Parc de la Fontaine in Montreal?

Great book, a fine event and very good company.

Plastic has become so ubiquitous in the planet’s #environment that #leafcutterbees have been observed using discarded #plastic instead of leaves in the construction of their nests. This is not positive #evolution.

C is for…

Cosmos, Corbiculae and Common

Cosmos - an annual flower much loved by #bees

Corbiculae - the pollen baskets on the rear legs of some bees used to carry pollen back to the nest.

Common - as in the most ‘Irish’ of #bumblebees, the ginger haired Common Carder.
