OFF the GRID

This is not about sustainability due to necessity but it's about lifestyle efficiency. It's not only living a principle you believe in; it's about showing a proper example to others that you live your values,AND, you empower yourself that it's easily attainable AND, you live the ideal that your money belongs to you, not corporations. So, this includes: use of solar panels and Tesla energy storage, organic gardening/farming, indoor/outdoor living, and living in union with nature.
