Oh that’s very good info about the water heater. So you’re saying that if my house lost power I could drink from that for 100-300 L? Good to know.

I knew about the 6 month cycle for water and I got tired of that chore so instead I just have unopened gallons. Those are fine, right?

That’s interesting with the sump pump, I haven’t heard of that before.

I love the CSA idea. My local one isn’t taking applicants until March so I just signed up for imperfect foods until then. I would love to get a CSA going.

Great work on that! What did it cost to go solar?

This is great. What do you see as the main hurdles to this and how do you speak to them effectively?

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.

I’m very interested in plants and growing food, which I think is valuable skill now and will only get more valuable. I would love to find ways to adapt agriculture to a shifting climate.

Another thing I’m doing which is simpler is some basic disaster preparedness. I have 20 gallons of water and a big box of non perishable food in my shed, and my wife and I have a plan of where to meet up in an emergency. It’s not “doomsday prepping” just a modest bit of preparation.

I planted Lemon Queen too! I didn’t even know that any sunflowers were perennials

Amazing dude. I loved the part at the end when they ate all the NPR correspondents and pooped their corpses into Hell

My thing is I have to scrape my fingernails against everything and if a surface is rough I hate it and don’t want to be around it.

I just got here. What’s going on?

I’ll meditate on the things you said. I’m sure you are right and I’m being maybe a curmudgeon. Have a good weekend

Oh I am in wrong community, aren’t I? I didn’t realize it was zero waste. Sorry about that.
