  1. Let me start off by saying we (my family and I) live completely, 100% “off of the grid and are completely self sufficient”

    The house is built utilizing natures natural elements, in the shape of an octagon with 8ft wide arch doors on every wall to catch every angle of wind (typical 4 sided homes have half the chance as one with 8 sides. A circle being the most efficient design). Woodburning stoves, solar chimney, solar AC, solar heating, solar water heating (pool and home), solar stove, solar power, wind power, hydrogen powered back up generator, hydrogen back up water heater, hydrogen stove, 2 hydrogen powered trucks, 1 EV (electric vehicle) and satellite internet.

    We also built many green small cabins on the ranch that we offer to family, friends and our on-site off-grid workshop guests, including one straw bale, one papercrete, earth bag and adobe, one cob and cordwood, one underground and rammed earth, one log and post and beam and one rock. Each one actually started as a test for what the main house would be and were later finished and turned into guest cabins. I later wrote a guide on how to build with alternative materials using alternative methods for next to nothing.

    We raise meat and milk goats, chickens for meat and eggs, ducks for meat and eggs, trap havilina (wild boar pig), rabbit, quail. brew our own beer from home grown products, preserve our fruits, vegetables, etc. smoke and jerky the meat, make our own soap, cheese.

    There are no utility lines, no water lines, no roads, tv, cell service, etc. on our ranch. EVERYTHING needed is produced here. All electricity comes from 27 solar panels, 2 main wind gens and a back hydrogen generator if needed (typically we can last 9 days with all luxuries of sunless windless weather, hasn't happened yet). Water is caught and storaged from the rain. Hot water is made with solar batch water heaters with an on-demand hydrogen hot water heater as backup. Even our vehicles use alternative energy (2 hydrogen trucks, 1 EV electric vehicle converted). Because of this we have no bills, no debt and no mortgage.

  2. Keep heat low, re-cycle, free-cycle, re-use, take stuff to Good Will, walk when I can,  grow a lawn organically, whatever I can.

  3. I take public transportation, turn off things that I'm not using, use the energy star appliances and use those energy saving light bulbs, etc.

  4. I always off the light, even for a short moment.

    I give my papers,glass,and cans for recycle.

  5. Not nearly enough!  But my measly contribution is picking up trash everyday.  Sometimes just during smoke breaks and other  days I make it a two hour event.

  6. Use reusable grocery bags...  and some stores even pay you for bringing your bags.

  7. I quit smoking...

  8. I WALK everywhere I can, which is very difficult to do living in the suburbs.  People drive by and look at me as if I'm crazy but I am from NY City and I am used to being able to walk everywhere.

  9. I live on a SAILBOAT and not a POWER BOAT
