Can we live with less?

Check on this experiment! For one year, Colin Beaven and his family UNPLUGGED from electricity, produced NO RUBBISH, travelled exclusively ON FOOT OR BY BIKE, and BOUGHT NOTHING but food (all of it locally grown). By the end, they discovered something SURPRISING: Living simply wasn’t just food for the environment; it made them HEALTHIER, HAPPIER, AND RICHER in ways they’d never expected.

Watch the video of the trailer! And an interview with him with exercises (COLIN BEAVAN_no_impact_man)
