I feel like I always think of solar punk as a macro thing where a lot has to change but there are still smaller wins we can implement, what have you been doing?

    I’m thinking of buying the slate truck and kitting it out with solar panels and insulation. Rent rises faster than my income, and at some point it’s gonna catch up. If I can park on the edges of town then just scooter between locations, life might actually become financially sustainable.

      I find it odd that legally it seems to be easier to live in a van than it is to buy some woodland and live there. You can buy the woodland and build a cabin just fine but its living in it that is near impossible to do legally.

        One option I considered was buying a parking spot in town and just parking there. Location could be great for work, but I think you’d have to be a bit sneaky about it to avoid getting hassled by the spooks. Haven’t decided what I’m gonna do for parking yet. Depends where I get work next.
