Living off the grid has been defined in many ways. For some, it's a romantic dream – the desire to "leave it all behind". For many, living off the grid has become a practical consideration. It doesn't matter what your reason is. What you do need to consider is the consequences of getting off the grid. In particular, you need to understand what exactly is involved in being off the grid.

Essentially, the concept of escaping from the government's power system involves a variety of different but closely related aspects of everyday living. If you decide to abandon the convenience of delivered hydro-electric power you need to look at what you'll put in its place. You will need specifically to look at off grid power systems. You'll also want to consider the impact it will have on various appliances and electronics, including DC powered computers.

Feet like cars by Marina Willer 2/23

The second of Do The Green Thing’s 23 Posters in support of WWF’s Earth Hour on March 23rd is by Pentagram designer Marina Willer.

Marina used a photo of her right foot to create a poster encouraging people to put down their car keys and put on their trainers:  

“We can panic about where the car keys are, get grumpy in a traffic jam, run out of petrol before we find a parking space, have a fight with the pay machine, and get a congestion charge penalty to finish off. Or we can walk and enjoy the world.”

WHY?

If you walked that two-mile trip to work every day instead of driving, you’d save over 320kg of CO2 every year. Plus you’d burn 73,200 calories, giving you buns of steel. 

HOW?

To discover a new route to work or a good stroll for a Sunday afternoon, check out Walkonomics  for the most pedestrian-friendly streets in your area.

We’re selling 23 limited editions of this poster printed on FSC paper with sustainable ink for £23 plus VAT, postage and packing with all proceeds going back to the Do The Green Thing charity. You can buy one here.

50 Shades by Angus Hyland 5/23

Pentagram partner, Angus Hyland, wanted to create a simple visual that would make recycling feel less like something you should do and more like something you want to do. For inspiration, he turned to the universal symbol for recycling - as well as last year’s must-read novel. “I’ve always loved the recycling symbol, designed by Gary Anderson in 1970. It’s a Möbius strip, with the arrows providing direction and a sense of action. It looks to me influenced by another big international symbol, created slightly earlier, the woolmark - and my version, being stripy, marries the two, making the original warmer and more fluid.” “It’s hand-drawn, to highlight the importance of individual action. And it features many different shades of green, because although green is a shorthand for the environment, for some reason graphically we tend to treat it as a block colour, ignoring all the variety that occurs in nature. So I decided to use it in as many shades as possible, highlighting both the variety in nature and the many different ways to save the planet. As an added bonus, it also gave me a nice pun for the title.”

WHY?

Making steel from recycled tins and cans takes 75% less energy than making steel from scratch.

HOW?

I have no clue about you, but I bet that sustainable energyis the way to go. This is because of the benefits experienced in the use of this energy that is freely available. Majority of people see waste and dirt when they come across cow dung. But for me when I see cow dung I think of fire that never runs out.
