Not necessarily. The answer could be to make clean electricity prices so low that even normal gasoline prices are more expensive.

Yes, it is possible to make some cheeses in an apartment.When I got into it 15 years ago, it was just my family and internet instructions. The mozarella and ricotta turned out fine. More complex, not really. Start with these.

I love linen and I love rayon (lyocell) but I’ve never seen a blend. It sounds heavenly. Congratulations on the find.

My family all bead except for me. They’ve done it for 25 years and love it. Yes, there is some gear, but it’s not terrible as far as hobbies go. That said, there must be at least 10,000 beads in my house now. It bothers me as a minimalist, but it makes everyone else happy so they stay.

Here’s how I did last month on my solar punk journey as a minimalist in South Florida.

My solar subscription generated 2,283 kWh against 2,209 kWh used including charging for my electric car (likely a wash with data center usage for the family). I also had my last round interview at an amazing local ESG company which will allow me to escape my toxic culture fossil fuel job. The few clothes I own are falling apart, but rather than buying new, I’m off to Goodwill to see if I can find some natural fabrics that work. Sadly, my local grocery store closed which will make me more reliant on driving and delivery to get food. At least both are electric.

I hope you are also making steps on your paths and would love to read about them and get ideas.

Yes, on the first screen it is an absolute total. On the second it is a percentage share.

So if something is growing, but slower than the growth of the rest, its share is declining.

Then go to your HOA meeting and speak for amending the bylaws to allow them. It doesn’t take much to get changes.
