  • Sustainable Living E5 | Energy: The Dirty Truth.
    Follow Robin Greenfield's bike ride across the United States practicing sustainable living to the extreme. In this 5 episode series you'll learn how your daily actions with food, waste, water, transportation, and energy affect the earth, other species, and yourself. And you'll learn how you can be a part of the solution and live sustainably. In this episode Robin lives cycle 4,700 miles across the USA using only electricity from his portable solar panels. He managed to use 1,000 times less electricity than the average American. He plugged into just 5 outlets in 104 days and never turned on a single light switch. The truth is that a vast majority of electricity in the USA is dirty energy. You'll learn about where your electricity probably comes from and the destruction it causes. The video ends with the simple actions you can take to reduce your environmental impact from electricity.

    Installing solar panels or a small wind turbine are good options

    The very system that allows us the live "off grid" and be able to feel good about ourselves is the same system you are criticizing. Dumpster diving is impossible without wasteful supermarkets and so is composting. 8 billion people can't all live sustainably

    • @danielaleksandr867
      @danielaleksandr867 2 года назад

      Dumpster diving is just saving things from the landfill. If there wasn't overproduction in the first place we wouldn't have to worry about supermarket food waste. It is very possible people did it for thousands of years. The way we live has just been in the past 200 years.

      I listened to him, giving a talk in San Diego and he said that , he doesn’t do that anymore because it isn’t the solution to the problem, that he did it only in the beginning of his activism .
