The Path to Self-sufficiency

[markus]

Hello

I'm writing an essay about self-sufficiency for a university course I'm taking. The topic will be something like Lifestyle and Sustainability: the Path to Self-sufficiency. I will use scientific and not-so-scientific references of course, but I'd also like to interview people who are actually aspiring to become (even partially) self-sufficient (I suppose no-one is 100%).

If you are interested in helping to spread the word about this wonderful alternative lifestyle, and helping me earn some study credits :) please tell me either by a private message or just reply to this thread. I'll then send you a questionnaire by private message. It contains 27 questions about food and energy production, fresh water and a few other things related to the topic. I think it takes about ten to thirty minutes to answer all the questions. I've sent it to a few subjects already, but the more people answer it, the more significant my results will be. Thank you!

I'm game, although I'll warn you I'm not always coherent right now (medical reasons, read the MRI thread in Ish Chat if you're curious).

Still, I think I could handle a questionnaire.

[Thomzo]

Hi
I'll do it as well. I'm probably not very far down the road to self sufficiency but I'll answer what I can.

Cheers

I'd like to have a go too, please. It will be quite interesting - will you show us your findings or essay. That'd be really good.
