I am planning to be totally (with a great deal of creature comforts)off the grid in 5 years. I am wondering how many others here have those sustainable inclinations.
PS I am neither a luddite or a hermit ! I just feel a balanced sustainable personal existance is good for my health-sanity and leaves me in a better position to be of good use to my fellow beings-creatures.
 
I'm sure that I'm the only one who had to google Luddite but just in case....

The Luddites were a social movement of British textile artisans in the early nineteenth century who protested—often by destroying mechanized looms—against the changes produced by the Industrial Revolution, which they felt were leaving them without work.

This English historical movement has to be seen in its context of the harsh economic climate due to the Napoleonic Wars, and the degrading working conditions in the new textile factories; but since then, the term Luddite has been used derisively to describe anyone opposed to technological progress and technological change.
 
Hop on over to Sufficient self! Many people over there are wither working toward minimum grid or are already off the grid. There is lots of advice and great info.

So, what energy source will you use to run your 'puter?
