I have studied issues dealing with sustainable living for many years. I am striving to live my life in a way that could be sustained for generations. I am not there, yet, but will continue to try to improve. I will post more thoughts about what I am doing and how in the future. If you want more information, come talk to me.

The idea of swadeshi comes from Gandhi, who promoted local production of cotton, fabric, and other goods in India as a means to reduce their economic dependence on Britain. However, the ideas of creating a local economy still hold today.

• The Gospel of Swadeshi by M K Gandhi

A couple of interesting books that relate to examining the role of technology in our lives are:

• Better Off: Flipping the Switch on Technology by Eric Brende
• The Art Of The Commonplace: The Agrarian Essays Of Wendell Berry
