My Path To Energy Efficiency

It has always been my dream to live completely off the grid. Unfortunately, I am far too addicted to many modern technologies to ever see this goal through. However, while I may not be able to disconnect from society all together, there are changes that I can make to minimize my impact on the environment.

I expect the process to take several years to complete and have decided to start this site as a way of chronically everything I learn along the way. It is my hope that you will find something in these pages that will help you along your path to energy efficiency as well.
