About enviro-geek.net

enviro-geek.net was originally set up as a host for a number of web sites for environmental organisations based in Newcastle, Australia, by Oliver, and naught101. It has since opened up with the hope of furthering all environmental/ecological and social justice struggles in relation to the 'net - but always as a means to an end.
Soon after opening up the enviro-geek.net web site we formed the enviro-geek collective, with the following goals:

  • To act as a network for knowledge and skill sharing for community-, social justice-, and environment-minded geeks.
  • To forward all technical aspects of community, social justice, and environment movements in regards to information technology.
  • To provide web-presence support to not-for-profit community, social justice, and environment focused organisations.

We aim to meet these goals by providing the following services:

  • A place for community, social justice, and environment-minded geeks to organise and share knowledge (this web site).
  • Free or donation hosting for groups that can't afford their own.
  • Web presence tools (content management systems, guides, software recommendation) and some support.
  • This web site, like most of our web sites, is based on Drupal, a free and open-source web content management system.
