An Earthship For Prepping
Long before I had even heard of the term prepping", I had always been a rugged individualist. In that I always wanted to live off-grid, with no bills and non-dependent on any person or government. Back then, I only had leftist resources like http://www.homepower.com/ for solar and off-grid living and I have watched with keen interest as the earthship movement has grown and matured.I always knew there was an under served market for right thinking individuals like myself and it is gratifying that the internet has exposed the vast market that it is today.
I am intrigued by earthships and do consider building one for myself in the future. I do however have different criterion for an earthship than the leftists do:
- I want to shower every day, twice if I feel like it.
- I want big screen TV's and large refrigerators and zero compromise when it comes to power consumption.
- I am willing to work hard, but I want the choice of comfort and leisure
- I want to be armed to the teeth and fortify and protect my home and land.
- I have zero concern for carbon footprint, carbon promotes plant growth and is NOT a pollutant.
- This list is hastily constructed and is not complete.
Some basic modifications to an earthship that I would make are: Much more water storage, when it rains, I want to capture every ounce of water. A fireplace, a generator, more solar panels, windmills, chicken coup, livestock, more security features.
