Grabbed this from the Reddit thread the Georges posted above:
"there's not enough space and resources for everyone to do what you're doing. It's great you can do that, but it's only possible for some people to live like that.
The problem is, if 7 billion people wanted solar panels like you, that would require huge amounts of energy and material, and we would trash the earth in the process.
Making compost is easy; pile shit up until it decomposes. nothing fancy needed. I've planted a garden, but this is no substitute for farming.
Not everyone can walk away. Off-grid living is for people who are relatively rich and do not have debt. My net worth is about -$10k, so I can't go anywhere."- That's a bit defeatist statement; there is not enough paints in the world for all of us to be painters - so what, so not everyone is a painter.pr2
