I sent email testimony in support of this resolution.
'Green jobs' are part of the reality we all must recognize. The Resolution is one of many steps needed along the way.
While my own family lives on the land -- as I did from childhood and have done in lots of my adult life -- the reality is, many different types of work lay ahead of us and some of that involves activities not directly on the land. For some folks new to living on the land, and frustrated with the challenges of doing so, the bigger picture can be a bit intimidating.
Mahalo for the comment. It seems to become part of your manao once you've reached that point in figuring out how to actually live in harmony with nature. I'm sure you've shared hundreds of tips and tricks that you've learned over the years. Common sense just isn't that common any longer.
I relied mostly on books but also on neighbors and friends to teach me everything I know about living off-the-grid. Some things are undeniable and inalienable.
