1.My goal is to get down to 100 kW usage a month by conventional means. I hope to incorporate solar photo-voltaic and small wind turbines for lighting from batteries at some point.

2. Shaving Deb’s head – if we do this soon, we’ll save a polar bear a month by eliminating the hair dryer and styling wand thingamajig.

3. Get rid of the TV, because there’s nothing on anyway.

4. Purchase a vehicle that gets 100+ mpg.

5. Make a still – that Irish whiskey will be missed by all!

6. Adding a solar outdoor shower stall.

What’s you’re ‘lawn carbon footprint’? I started thinking about how much time was being spent mowing and how bad lawn mowers are for emissions. Some lawn mowers spew out as much CO2 as thirty cars. So I stopped mowing! The grass got really tall and I decided to make hay bales out of it. I bought a manual push mower to do around the house, and we hay the rest of the old lawn with a slightly used New Holland baler.
