    After 82 years on this planet, I'm doing my best to help turn this planet around. But it is sure difficult! And I persevere.
    Who do I support? Real Organic Project, Slow Food International and SFRR, SFSCN, Cornucopia Institute, Equal Exchange ETC ETC. I sign petitions but no longer march!! I support small to medium farmers by either my local CSA or at farmers markets. And I buy online from EE and the ROP's farmers. I just conducted a tour of a local cidery who are using real regenerative practices on their 5.5 acre property. So that's a little bit about what I am doing environmentally plus driving less, taking the Smart Train and walking!!

    I used to heard about biomass technology
    Currently in Thailand began to focus on Biomass Energy, it has increased because our country is an agricultural industrial country, causing a lot of agricultural waste. (Agricultural residue), so use these leftovers to create maximum benefit.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transportation
    Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Private vehicles account for 60% of trips of a mile or less. Do you often drive short distances instead of biking or walking? If so, how might incorporating an electric bike into your lifestyle help you make more climate-friendly choices?

    Usually, I am walking with the short distances.
    It will help to reduce the carbon if we use the electric bike in our lifestyle

    What was your process like for restructuring your trip? How can you avoid more air travel in the future?

    Plan the trip to travel in the country where we can go by bus, train or car.
    This can help to avoid air travel in the future as well.
