They gave it some ridiculous name, starts with a k but escapes me at present.
-it occurs to me that the sentiments expressed by biker are a good example of what I think our biggest problems going forward will be. There’s a lot of resistance to adopting new methods or practices, some of it credible and hard to resolve,......but, a lot of it, in my experience...just batshit insane and completely wrong. Especially when it comes to food production and systems.
That’s the thing that’s gonna kill us, if anything. Not the weather.
WTF are you babbling about?
You think I'm " batshit insane" for not jumping on your fantasy train?
I say that solar and windpower are a joke - when considering our power consumption.
Are YOU " off grid"? Are you enjoying " cheap solar energy"? And don't give me some bullshit that your electric company is big into solar.
If it was actually cheap - you would have your own system and you wouldn' t have to give a nickle to those evil commercial power companies....
It' s not cheap. It' s not fully reliable. It is NOT " green" like you would like to pretend. The manufacture of just batteries creates a SHITLOAD of pollution - and environmental damage. Same goes for solar panels.
It' s just not in your backyard.....
