thanks bear bear, i put in the money got my bro to build it for me

I've been biking everyday and been thinking...

Biking is not really low carbon, yes, I am not burning petroleum, but I still end up eating more food due to more exercise. Where does all the food come from? Petrochemical fertilizers. There could be a low carbon lifestyle, I think though, we are at a time of crisis where there is a huge population overshoot in the world. I am starting to think war is good, kill some people off to release the tension of the lands as well as human vs human conflicts. am i crazy? hahaha

We are at a point where governmental policy is probably not enough, the problem is the growth of the Chinese economy allows the wealthy Chinese citizens to imitate our lifestyle, the western extravagant lifestyle, which in turns raises the carbon footprint per capita. I only hope China and India goes to war, nuclear Armageddon for Asia, very unlikely.

Just started composting for a couple of weeks, at least a bucket of organic waste every few days.

Earth 2100 by ABC, typical American propaganda trying to belittle China and India's rise.



I have done 3 of 5 of my goals already, gonna add some more

6.  Redevelop current front and backyard into a vegetable garden.

7. Retrofitting current home to conserve more energy

8. Purchasing a PHEV, most likely a Prius

These are LEED Platinium luxury homes created by streamline Group. Millenium Group's Olympic Village will come to mind for most people, but their condo ARE NOT LEED Platinum. Their condos are LEED Gold, while the public areas are LEED Platinium. Beware of the marketing companies when it comes to environment and saving the world.

My new hobby for green living is raising rabbits for meat. Its healthy and easier to manage than chickens, also they reproduce real fast. I have a little backyard farm now.
