Description

In daily life, we can take control of the resources and services we depend on. Electricity and energy don't have to come off the public utility grid—alternatives abound in solar, wind, and water-generated power.

Design decisions can drastically affect power consumption, and biodiesel and alternative fuels can help break the oil habit. Dave Black describes alternatives for eco-pimping your home and lifestyle for independence, economy, and a more integrated way of life.

Equally valuable for the urban dweller vaguely concerned about the size of their carbon footprint and the rural self-sufficiency enthusiast, Living Off the Grid can help anyone take control of their life and way of living.
