Breaking the grid : how to buy nothing, make everything, and live sustainably

Martin, Dan (author.).

Summary: When a crisis hits, we all wish we could be a little more self-sufficient. Readers will learn to live completely off the grid or just be a little more environmentally conscious. In this comprehensive guide, readers will find step-by-step photographed instructions for everything from making your own paper products to microgardening, from building furniture to harnessing solar power, and from making your own brown sugar to sewing sutures in an emergency situation. With projects for first-time gardeners and hardcore homesteaders alike, there's something for everyone!
