Title: Kevin McCloud's Shed in the Woods ..ABC Post by Emma Peel on Feb 25th, 2013 at 2:42am
This has been absolutely fascinating... and very timely...
just look at the projects he has completed in this... with a lot of help from like-minded individuals.. Amazing methane-producing ordure,...!!! ;D What an absolutely amazing effort... to show what can be done,,, and the WASTE we produce....gross isn't it..??.. the sheer obscenity of the amount of resources we waste, unthinkingly, uncaringly... I mean.... very thought provoking. I wonder if I could re-engineer my septic tank into an energy-producing + ?? I'm sure most of us have had some awareness of sustainability.. but this program .. I believe it... This should be a guide... (for once the cities have imploded ... and the systems failed... ???) No no This should be a guide, a pointer >>>> to re-learning pre- industrial , pre-corp , necessary skills and attitudes. Primary among them?? Finding the people who KNOW and getting them involved.... ie creating community.... FOR NOW.... 'Cos DOODS :D :D :D One day soon your smart-phones going to die..... :P |

so you didn't see him shoot a deer, skin and gut it, and tan it's hide, and make it part of a comfy chair??
You didn't see this? Try it... it has some truly intersting ideas... |

C'mon Emma, there was nothing new to you in the show was there? It was a bit of a larf I enjoyed it but I think his excursion to the slums of Delhi was more thought provoking. |

ll I thought the lesson on tanning deer hide in the brains of the animal that used to wear it, was fascinating... never heard of that one before. :)

I never thought I'd say this, but I think I'd actually prefer to use a vat of collected stale urine :D |

hee heh
yeah this show kind of sticks with me. ;D also impressed by his foray to a lion park, to obtain buckets and buckets of lion poo .. after realising that collecting dog poo from local dog parks wasn't going to provide enough shti ;D and loved the jet casing hot tub..!!. - he shows exemplary and positive staunchness and determination... ..almost above and beyond ... almost. of course... if I had his connections, I'd make some changes here too.!!! . |
