1484 A 5000 calorie farm... in your flat.
Did anyone else see the article in the Times about the Farm Box? It's paywalled so I'll attempt to summarise it. Multidisciplinary dead simple food production in your living room. It basically uses human waste to power the hydroponic element as well as using algae and fish (I'm not certain on whether the algae, shrimp and fish are some biological mechanism or more food).

The only downside this is just an idea. I'll look around and see if I can find the plan diagram from the Times. If I can't, I'll post a photo or a scan of it tomorrow.

Lets say I have a stream next to my house.

How difficult would it be to use the power of the stream to power my house? How would I go about doing this?

This seems a good idea if I wanted to avoid paying electricity proces but please note that I have no idea about hydro-electricity so maybe it would not be economical to buy a turbine and all the other paraphernalia.

I have heard that other renewable methods such as solar are generally not cost-effective.

Thanks.

Cut big hole in the side of the bin, keep the piece of metal for creating a door, cut some small pipe holes in the sides(one top, one bottom), get some copper pipe and coil it around inside the fire box so that it'll thermosyphon. flatten out the lid(for kettles and things) and cut a hole in it.
Make the connections fairly quick fitting and you have a horribly inefficient stove, with some science added to this you could probably make something much more efficient but it'll work and it won't explode regardless of what you do.

With todays modern houses and energy saving retrofits the oxygen supply IS SOMETHING you'll need to look into, A house a few roads away almost killed themselves because they decided to botch open up the old open fire for comfort and it had negative pressure so it filled the nice sealed insulated house with carbon monoxide very quickly.
You need airbricks by law in rooms with fires or an external air pipe for it, on that note here's what happens when you fuck up by not doing it properly and to code

So far as airbricks are concerned, the risk is minimal in older houses, and the law is as may be. I'm not callously endangering the lives of everyone here; I myself have lived in a few old houses with one or more solid-fuel stoves, without airbricks, and been fine, and known enough other people do the same to have a fair sample size. Also, if the room fills up with smoke, probably best get out for the time being, but don't assume the worst; yet again, this is fine in the vast majority of cases (i.e. all of my encounters).
Drawing a line on date, I think that, essentially, you're fine if stoves were the norm when the house was built. I would also say that draughtier houses from the sixties, seventies and possibly later, which weren't built to modern energy-saving standards (although, as >>1570 point out, beware the retro-fit) would probably be fine, but don't take that as gospel. If that does apply to you, do other research.

Anyone here been watching the two series of this?

I thought it was fascinating. An excellent peek into these scenarios, so long as you are aware of the game and rules in place.

The "inventions" and techniques were worth seeing, but the real interest is obviously the people, the various personalities and how they cope in this environment. I'd love to hear the views of some of the people here on this. If you haven't seen it then you can get it easily through torrents.

Keep in mind it is very much American, with all the downsides that entails. Overcome that though and there's something worthwhile.

1574 SPOILERS
Season 1 was an incredibly optimistic and forgiving scenario. They had a dream team, an enclosed workshop, materials, tools, low levels of competition, traders, etc.

What was interesting was seeing that even in this scenario this dream team was tearing apart and self-destructive at times. There were a few times that they could have easily had themselves killed through neglect or foolish arguments. If this was a true life or death scenario then many of the things they did would have been unacceptable.


Season 2 was quite a change. Instead of the dream team we have a random mish mash. Instead of the great spot we have an open and vulnerable dump. Constant bandits and mobs, etc. I notice that they rarely if ever learned from their mistakes. Security was constantly left on the back burner and they were frequently punished for it with raids. They squandered resources. They miss out on other resources, sometimes even through laziness. I felt the directors were trying to use carrot and stick to get them to learn, but this group was simply destined to die on their own. The only redeeming element was the Tick. That guy could have survived on this own though and found a better group when it suited him. The in fighting and retarded behaviour is disheartening, but they are Americans, I suppose.

I'm always saddened by the tree holocaust that occurs at this time. I know they are from sustainable forests and growing trees have more ecological value than mature trees, but I still find it hard to justify killing a tree for decoration. I was thinking about planting a tree in a pot, big enough to keep it healthy but small enough to restrict it's size. Iit could live in the garden and I could wheel it inside at Xmas. Has anyone done this? Is it possible?

For example, if you reused a dead tree skeleton and green tinsel (or other material) that was to be chucked anyway, the environmental impact would probably be less than that for farming a single tree.

Due to wine bills in excess of 150 quid a month, my family have recently given homebrew wine a shot. It's absolutely fantastic and nothing like the piss we used to brew when I was a kid. We're on the second batch now, which is already better than the first. When it's done I want to give some ale a shot.

Are there any magic secrets for homebrewing ale? I'll be using a kit so can someone recommend one that is quite light, not bitter; a bit like a Wells Bombardier? Ta.

Any sealed container is unsuitable for fermentation; it doesn't matter if it be steel or card board: it will explode. The only time "sealed" works is after most of the fermentation is done and you try to carbonate, at which point you want either a pressure proof container or a good estimate of how much "priming sugar" to add to not make your chosen vessel explode.

As for the general point: wrong. Lots of people ferment in glass carboys without hassle. All it takes is an airlock which lets gas escape.

>>1458
I've not used kits for cider so far. Instead, I always reverted to apple juice (of the cloudy "not-from-concentrate" kind). You won't get seriously dry cider out of those (that requires cider apples), but depending on how much sugar you add and how long you let it sit, you can get a non-sweet dry-ish brew out of it. 50-75g/sugar per 5l of juice is a decent starting point: add your chosen brewing yeast, let it ferment for ~2 weeks, then re-rack it (i.e. transfer to a different container while making sure to leave the dead yeast sediment behind), then let it sit for at least another 3 weeks. After that, it will be drinkable, though every additional week mellows and improves the flavour. It should come out quite dry.

It smells lethal, I don't drink cider since I find it too acidic and gives me heartburn, so I'll be offloading it onto a cider loving friend.

I'm not sure if I'm arguing against the correct person here, to be honest. The thread is twisting my mind.

What I want to argue is that this is better than a hotel because it is greener, looks better and is not going to destroy the ecosystem. Whoever I'm agreeing with, I love you, whoever I'm disagreeing with, oh well, I hope you'll see my point soon.

But yeah I didn't post in the thread before 1455. I thought 1404 was saying that these are just as bad as hotels because the resort owns the materials.

Wrong.

The size of the UK fleet was partly reduced not for "sustainability", but to get deals in return with other countries in Europe. We essentially traded our long term resources away for short term gains. What makes it worse is we traded it to countries that don't care what happens to our resources, certainly not like the British would (and they continue to rape and pillage as mentioned above).

The Russian factory boats are monsters too. I don't know if you've ever seen them or the results of them.

Britain should use the navy to enforce its seas more strictly and take back the fishing rights we should have, both to increase our own take and to prevent it being absued by others.

I'm wary of the implication here, that a more intelligent creature is somehow more worthy of being saved.

Hi guys hope you can help.

I curently live in a large northern city. I rent a flat at around £400 per month, and basically after food/bills/cothing etc I have no money left. Luckly I have quite a bit of money saved so I am planning a lifestyle change.

I was thinking about buying a caravan and living in the countryside, but I can think of many problems. Has anyone any experince of something like this or similar?

The one I've booked in Cornwall has everything you'd need, including a full sized cooker with oven, fridge freezer, microwave and telly with freeview. It even has 2 double bedrooms, one has its own en-suite shower as well as the main one. looking at the pictures and dimensions given its bigger than my old flat.

I stayed in a static near Kielder last year, and it had a WiFi repeater and an ethernet connection in it, amongst other things. It really was better than my flat, in terms of plushness.

There's one on the shores of Windemere somewhere selling for about 250k.

The point is that a static sells as one of two things: an old age investment or a bare-bones living arrangement. I know at least one of the lots near Mousehole, Cornwall had semi-legal subsistence farm gardens near it. And on further enquiry it became obvious that they really relied on it. (though they were really up-beat and open to friendly newcomers). Great bunch of /eco/-luddites, in a nutshell.

I think it was an investment. I looked at the pictures of it and it's astoundingly good.
