Wonderful Soul Donates Batteries For My Off The Grid Setup In Puerto Rico
Hello to all my radically wild souls, I have been very fortunate to have received so much help in my time here in Puerto Rico. In 2019, I was about to leave Puerto Rico because I was shot in the face for defending a beach from trash. Which could be read about here. But I was able to obtain the property of my dreams as my goal is to create a food forest and live off the grid and sustainably and hopefully build something that could inspire others. On my property there are no power lines and so I have to rely on one solar panel that a wonderful soul…

WATCH: Dirt! The Movie
Dirt The Movie DIRT The Movie–narrated by Jamie Lee Curtis–brings to life the environmental, economic, social and political impact that the soil has. It shares the stories of experts from all over the world who study and are able to harness the beauty and power of a respectful and mutually beneficial relationship with soil. But more than the film and the lessons that it teaches, is a call to action. “When humans arrived 2 million years ago, everything changed for dirt. And from that moment on, the fate of dirt and humans has been intimately linked.” How can you affect that relationship for the better?

Documentary: We The Tiny House People: Small Homes, Tiny Flats & Wee Shelters
We are often led to believe we need the bigger home as we seek status as we seek to be in competition with one another. I think tiny homes can be efficient. TV producer and Internet-video personality Kirsten Dirksen invites us on her journey into the tiny homes of people searching for simplicity, self-sufficiency, minimalism and happiness by creating shelter in caves, converted garages, trailers, tool sheds, river boats and former pigeon coops.

PHOTOS: The food I have Grown in Puerto Rico
The food I have grown in Puerto Rico I am currently residing in the sunny tropical island of Puerto Rico (by way of Brooklyn), which for those that don’t know is located in the Caribbean. The great part of living here is the warm sunny weather year round. The climate is great for growing food year round. But there are not many growers. I have challenged people to grow at least one plant, which could be read in this blog. Yet that is too hard for most people. I have inspired a few to grow, but I think it’s time for the people to realize our true potential and in…

WATCH: First Earth (Earthen Homes Documentary)
I wrote a blog on my vision on a sustainable future which can be seen by clicking here. I think we need to change the way we look at shelter as all we see is the big house with the white picket fences and the giant swimming pool. Living in debt all our lives, paying off our giant homes. Using materials that leave a negative impact on our environment. So many viable options, as I wrote in that post I mentioned before. From cob to hempcrete. So many options, but we limit those options by the limits of our creativity. Here is a documentary on earthen homes which I enjoyed…

Quarantine Challenge: Grow just one Vegetable plant
My challenge to the world: Grow just one plant! Updated: March 28 2019 Many around the world are quarantined in our homes due to the coronavirus. I am currently in Puerto Rico, where the weather is warm year round and I truly believe Puerto Rico needs to grow more food as 85 percent of the food is imported. If things get worse and that ship never comes, well let’s say things will get ugly quick. I want to propose a challenge to the world and especially to the people of Puerto Rico as food could be grown all year long in this beautiful tropical climate. Here is the food I…

A New World In Our Hearts: Visions of a Sustainable Future.
Visions of a sustainable future. “He who knows what sweets and virtues are in the ground, the waters, the plants, the heavens, and how to come at these enchantments, is the rich and royal man.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson Have you ever envisioned a better world? a more sustainable future? One where we live from the land by growing our own foods, have our own renewable energy and in this post I go on further with a wonderful gallery down below of Earthen homes. I envision living in harmony and balance with nature and each other. There is a wonderful documentary about this topic called a simpler way, which can…
