This is truly a momentous time for anyone who has ever championed relocalization as an alternative to the faceless, harried, destructive global economy that exerts influence over our communities and activities. Sea change is in the air, with collapsing global financial systems, tenuous energy grids, and food insecurity, there is a welcome resurgence of farmers’ markets, renewable energy projects, and buy local initiatives. People are on the lookout for alternatives—sound, sane alternatives

  1. We are indeed on the lookout for sound, sane alternatives, which is why I grow my own vegetables, catch my own water and harvest my own solar power. I moved out of the city about 4 years ago to a small community of like-minded people who are also interested in the details of living for ourselves, not the traffic jams, junk food, billboards and polluting factories that are big cities.

  2. Great! We are a growing movement, spontaneously resisting insanity.
