{"product_id":"9780983272601","title":"Off on Our Own : Living Off-Grid in Comfortable Independence: One Couple's ''Learn as We Go'' Journey to Self-Reliance","description":"\u003cp\u003eTed and Kathy Carns live in the picturesque Laurel Highlands region of western Pennsylvania. They have most of the usual modern conveniences: fridge, freezer, washer, computer, cell phone, hot tub, vacuum, hair dryer, flat screen TV with surround sound...and they do it all without plugging into the power grid. Their house is wood-heated, their fuel is non-petrol; they grow their own food, put up their harvest, make their own wine, and drop fresh canned peaches into the solar-powered blender for the morning smoothies... It's a simple life that works: zero waste, total recycling, and no \"unnecessary necessities.\" Others have done this, but the Carns' are doing it in such a dramatic, inventive way that people flock to their astonishing Stone Camp home to learn Ted's secrets. More than a dozen universities and colleges in the Tri-State\/Mid-Atlantic area bring professors and students to Stone Camp every year to observe first-hand the remarkable lifestyle of Ted and Kathy Carns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOff...On Our Own is Ted's manual for living off-grid, told with Mark Twainesque humor and irreverence: how he created the various systems that power the Stone Camp (includes a how-to chapter)...and what he thinks about oil, self-reliance, waste, nature and reducing one's carbon footprint to walk more gently on the earth. The book is illustrated throughout with more than 60 black and white photos.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"St. Lynn's Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45391957000271,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":628.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/ja\/products\/9780983272601","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
