Yay for cartoons that show the perspective of other animals! The person in this cartoon is doing everything she can to help protect the environment, except she somehow forgets about protecting the living and sentient beings that share the environment with her.
What is this cartoon series called?
I thought you might like this one.
I have no idea what this series is called, I just “stumbled upon it” …
Really the post have a good comic…
Hello Digital mind.
i’ve been reading over your articles and they are giving me some good ideas, and it is, infact, a useful process thinking / realising how much electricity one can use!!
We (me and Douglas) are going to Portugal next week to look at a bit of land that is 800 metres away from the nearest electricity so “power’ has been on the agenda and is becoming more necessary to think about.
So … I wanted to ask - if I put a list together of everything i can think of that we would use on pretty much a daily basis are you kind enough to give a guide of what sort of solar paneling / batteries and inverter would be needed?
I think I get it though - you need enough solar panels to run the wattage you need on a daily basis - the batteries are there to store that energy - so you have a back up should you have less sunlight - and the inverter is a way of converting the energy from the solar panels / batteries for household use?
The other issue we’ll have is that as musicians we have amplifiers / electric guitars / microphones / keyboards - but I think for those we’d be better with a generator … is this also something you can advise on? I’ll await your reply and meanwhile start making a list of our technological junkie daily needs / maddness!!!!
And - by the way - my chickens will be on the chicken holiday paradise of joy!! (I’m allergic to eggs - so they’ll just be hanging out LOL!! Joanna
