I am working with a neighborhood organization to improve tree canopy in my urban area. I got involved with my neighborhood association and another org in an effort to build and strengthen my community. I would love to take more action but I’m not sure what or how. Starting to see now that working together with people helps make us more resilient
My wife and I are moving to Central America next year. Once we get there, we’re going to be building a partially off-grid house: electricity from solar panels with on-grid fallback, water from a spring on the property, and solar water heating. We’re hoping we’ll be able to grow most of our own veggies and compost whatever we possibly can.
Unfortunately, we’ll need a gas-powered vehicle due to rough terrain and a severe lack of EV charging capabilities in the area. That being said, we don’t drive very often at all here in the US and I expect we’ll drive even less once we’re down there.
