Скачать или смотреть Off-Grid Alaska: Balancing Sustainable Living with Climate Change Reality

Living off-grid in rural Alaska sounds idyllic, but the reality is far more complex. This isn't just about escaping the city; it's about adapting to shorter and warmer winters, unpredictable weather, and the ever-increasing threat of wildfires. Join me as I share the challenges of energy-conscious living in a rapidly changing environment, and the solutions and actions we already have.

In this video:

Off-grid power solutions: Discover the realities of relying on a diesel generator and solar power. I'll show you a generator oil change – a necessary task, but also a symbol of our dependence on fossil fuels.

Energy-saving habits: Hear how we make daily choices to conserve energy, from using propane appliances to strategically using high energy demand items.

Climate change firsthand: Witness the impacts of climate change in Alaska – shorter winters, more frequent wildfires, and the devastating effects of spruce beetle infestations. I'll show you the aftermath of a wildfire that came dangerously close to our home.

Preparing for the future: Learn about our preparations for increasingly frequent wildfires. This isn't just about survival; it's about adapting to a new reality.

Striving for balance: The journey towards a more sustainable life is ongoing. More efficient solar is on the horizon, but saving energy (using less electricity) is key.
