(34,108 posts)What we thought was progress has actually been taken over and is no longer the progress we need. It never hurts to rethink what one is doing rather than blindly following what was important long ago. As things change it would be folly for us to stick to what we thought was best without trying to be better than we were 20+years ago.
I have a ton of solar panels on my farm. Am I going to trash them because of this video? Nope, but I can look for improvement to add to it and hopefully we can find better options. One way is to farm differently and to USE LESS. I live with a guy who if it were not for me being a terrible nag we would never open a window. Heater to air conditioner. Water would run constantly instead of using the pond to water the garden. Etc.......it goes on. Use less is the best thing we could do each individually.
Whatever, changing with the times and improving what we do is not going backwards. Somehow I think the climate deniers would not be at all happy with using less and looking for better outcomes for what we are doing.
