The Smol Earth Compendium is a community-curated collection of links to Gemini and Gopher content related to the natural world and the great outdoors, especially content which fosters a deeper sense of connection to nature, encourages long term holistic thinking about the natural world, or contributes to an increased awareness that all human activity takes place within the natural world, is inescapably dependent upon that world, and has unavoidable impacts on that world.

The Compedium is not an aggregator of phlogs or gemlogs like Bongusta or Antenna, because almost nobody writes exclusively about topics within its scope. The basic unit is individual posts, pages, or articles. There's no facility for authors to directly submit their individual in-scope posts, because that would invite spam, and that workflow will not scale well for authors if many other link curating projects with different focuses appear (and we hope they will). Instead, we are experimenting with a novel distributed curation approach based on consensus amongst a small team.

The Compendium is organised as a folksonomy. Entries are assigned one or more tags, and the tags do not exist within a strict hierarchy. This approach can get messy and inconsistent when attempted at large scales without any coordination or oversight. We hope to build a consistent, useable catalogue by operating with a small team who can easily adopt conventions.
The Smol Earth Compendium is a very new project. There's nothing more to see here yet, but stay tuned...
