I don't really know how much i use on a daily basis because i'm billed monthly for most of my utilities, but i would love to try living "off the grid" with maybe solar panels and a rain catchment system. I think it would be hard to do at first due to being used to such things but i think over time i might be able to do without....
How much electricity, gas, water and/or firewood do you use in your everyday life? o you think it would be easy for you to use less of any of these things? why or why not?
I've lived in Houston, for over 30 years, my highest electricity bill was $75, 25years ago. Now it between $25-35 a month.
I use my utility very wisely to suit my comfort and a ceiling fan.
I don't use any firewood or gas in my home. Could I use less water and electric? Probably. I could stop watering my lawn, but then I would have to bathe my dogs more often. That hassle is not worth it.
