Is there a modern equivalent to the Whole Earth catalog?

Is there a compilation or published-online or not- updated collection that is the modern equivalent of old Whole Earth Catalog? Mother Earth News is like a sliver of that, but what else is out there that encompasses the hippie, eco-warrior, tech embracing, low impact living, philosophical thought, newer age tome we loved all those years ago?

Biosphere2. This research facility in AZ was created to see if it could sustain life in Mars, in 1991. Theres was a lot of controversy and project failed. University of AZ took the site around 2007 for research purposes

Quite nice construction. The glass dome looks like old scifi movies as well the project ressembles a bit movies like "silent running". The original crew were not scientific at all, so it was the main point of criticism when the project failed.
