The planet will survive, we just won’t be able to live in it! I love that word, ‘sustainability’. This current and beneficial way of living I encountered during the Hippie era, of the early 70’s in the US. It was a great time of increased accessibility to education. That coupled with the tragic Vietnam war gave us the impetus to be ‘self sustaining’. We wanted to grow our own food and live in communion (communes) with our environment. Books had already been written about the the destruction we were reigning on ourselves, ie. the spraying of DDT. We wanted to not be misled by popular belief & acceptance of the norm in business & government. We were not popular & our edicts were not mainstream. We were only observed as a drug subculture. So I’m delighted by the current ‘dive’ into helping the planet & each other. I’m delighted these concerns are more mainstream, glad it’s happening, even tho it’s 40 years or so later.

Putting my heating on the lowest space \ basement puts the heat on the floor so you can take the shews off to get warmer
Encouraging tourism is not eco friendly. Building on wild land is not eco friendly. Get over yourselves
Eco friendly when creating new buildings on otherwise natural land? I think not.
