But, I don't pretend to be off the grid. In cities, the main problem is keeping the refrigerators in the food stores working.

def way ahead of me. the only "greener" thing i did recently was add some box fans that cool down the house a little with less power to hopefully run the AC a little less. converting my bike to e-bike, which will theoretically be "greener" if i use it instead of my car for a short errand.
