Become a sponsor to Phil Sturgeon

I sold everything I owned in 2019 and cycled around 30+ countries spreading awareness of the climate crisis. We got 100,000 trees planted, but that was not enough, so I've set up a climate action charity Protect Earth planting trees and sowing wildflower meadows.

As a trustee I don't get paid, so I also work on green tech and making tech greener at Green Turtle, but I also keep getting dragged into maintaining API/OpenAPI OSS work unpaid. Help me delegate this work by sponsoring me, and I'll find folks who can fix these tools. I'll also use the money to hire folks to work on my climate software ideas, because I have far more ideas than I have time to implement them myself.

Help me focus on maintaining OSS, writing educational API deisgn/development articles, building cool stuff, and working on the newest round of APIs You Won't Hate books and articles. 👍
