re: #541 Targetpractice, Worst of Both Worlds
One obstacle I have complained about here is CC&R’s, and regulators from county or city on up to state level. The permit process for home wind turbines, gray water use, cisterns, water wells, solar panles is huge. These authorities have little to no idea what is safe, and what to inspect, let alone permit.
Get the government out of the way of our individual efforts. Bottom up before top down. How much oil can we offset by ourselves given room to try?
