I'd like to not have to go to the grocery store ever again for meat or veggies that I can grow. Haven't had to buy eggs in a while now and chickens are very similar to goats in that they'll eat anything. They eat ticks which is lovely as well, couldn't mow the yard last year without having a tick or two on me.
Being brought up on a farm in the 60s playing out in the fields dirty eating good food.
No pressure what ever just being kids nothing to aspire too no internet no social media.
Life was so simple then shit was that such a bad thing .
I'm not going to become a Luddite, but I am going to limit screentime like a motherfucker as far as the little one is concerned. I was limited in my tv/video game time as a child, probably could have been more so. Most of my childhood before my teens was going outside to play or ride bikes.
I've added in the garden for a specific reason as well. As early as possible I'd like to get the little one to "help the family" by having little chores like feeding animals, picking vegetables, washing vegetables, etc. I figure the more responsibility they can shoulder at a young age (no pressure mind you, I'm not sending the tyke to a salt mine or anything) then some of life's lessons start sinking in earlier than what other children get. These are also activities we get to do together away from distraction which will be nice. Working together to achieve a common goal builds cohesion and teamwork which is of course brilliant for families to have. You establish trust, work on your communication skills (that's a big one right there), and you figure out what roles you can play within a group. You'll also run across conflict resolution and those skills are beneficial in life as well.
but anywho, yes nature is extremely important and it is a damn shame more people are not better stewards of the environment but at the same time the Paris Accords were absolute crap as they were unenforceable and regardless of what other nations do China and India on their own will shit out enough garbage to compensate for everyone else attempting to be tidy. If China was held to the same standard as the United States then maybe we can talk otherwise it's just feel good legislation that hurts business and does fuck all for the environment....oh it'll line some pockets of certain well connected former politicians and big CEO's but the little guys, nah they won't be able to compete.
China and India are two of the worst country's for polluting there inviroment chemicals pumped into rivers vast amounts of air pollutants etc.
They are industrial giants but very poor standards in basically cleaning there emissions.
Basically there are GB and the USA in the 50s
we cleaned up our act but producing cheap steel plastic etc comes at a price.!
