were already recycling, got rid of the credit cards and bank account, so we pay cash for everything. any other ideas, to live more attuned to nature, and escape the ratrace ??/
 
Grow your own food, or at least some of it. Even if you live in an urban area you can grow some big pots of veggies on your porch, deck, roof, or windowsill. Lessen your time in front of the TV/comp, spend more time outside, turn off the lights when you can, bike/walk to work/school/other destinations, use cloth shopping bags and shop for local foods and products. This is a pretty good site, they have lots of info about homesteading/farming/green living/sustainability: http://www.motherearthnews.com
Good luck!!
 
Contribute to nature by refusing to buy boxed , canned or packet food , use only fresh vegetables , meat , etc . It isn't necessary to grow your own by using them you encourage real farming rather than high tec low cost efficiency to be the foundation of the nation , and what better way is their to put a finger up at the rat race ?
