Ben Green: Self-sufficiency at the End of the World, Gebunden

Klappentext

One year to nutritional self-sufficiency. Six years to total self-sufficiency. Ten years to off-grid resilience - even if the end is nigh...

Climate breakdown is gathering pace and the way we live our lives will need to change. How do we grasp this new reality, take practical steps, and face the future with hope? By learning to garden as if the world is ending.

Ben Green took on a derelict former East German military barracks and in six years turned it into a laboratory for living a radically self-sufficient life. He has distilled everything he has learnt into a practical manual for how to thrive in troubling times.

With humour and humility, Ben demonstrates how everyone can strive to liberate themselves from
reliance on global systems of food production and energy generation. And how facing up to the reality of climate breakdown need not be a counsel of despair, if we learn to embrace the "happy doomer" spirit.

This is essential reading for all future humans.
