Good-bye politics..... let's get back to New Homesteading!

I restarted posting here during the Presidential election. I felt this election was critical for the world.

Somehow, in a choice between the lesser of two evils and evil itself, a very angry, confused and searching America chose evil itself........ that is for now.

So while the misguided minority that gave an abomination an Electoral College victory celebrate and clean their guns, those of us concerned about the future of the entire planet, must continue to do our best to mitigate the effects of 7.3 billion humans. Humanity itself must deal with the extreme over-population, resource depletion and sixth mass extinction event that is resulting from our population crisis. The cure is not "Brexiting" our way out, the cure will be reducing our impact on the planet and our numbers.

I am changing the focus of this blog away from politics, but understand I remain what we call a Progressive and support our ability to choose what we do and how we care for our bodies. I won't mention much about politics, unless there is a piece of legislation that affects sustainable living and New Homesteading......... we all know the 49 month nightmare that has begun, no sense re-hashing the senseless motivations of an ignorant populace.

So....... here at the Eco-Ranch, we have changed our main building material for the living quarters from empty bottles to raw, native rock. There was a large rock fall off one of the mountains our main highway cut through and there are hundreds of tons of fantastic building material right there! Since using rock will require about 1/4 of the mortar of glass bottles, the switch is a good decision!

There will be a lot more posts on that subject and more, but for now, pass this URL on to your friends and let's create a sustainable life, together!
