This is the first part of a short series based on conversations with ChatGPT, covering the basics of self-reliance, self-sufficiency, and other critical considerations for all of us today — and in the near future. It was inspired by a story about the increasing number of cancelled “renewable energy” projects, totaling many billions of dollars.
In my view, solar and wind are neither lasting nor feasible solutions, given the massive outlay of resources and materials, as well as the costs involved — not just in installation, but in maintenance and eventual replacement. Exposed to the elements year after year, this technology will not even last a human generation. To my knowledge, little to none of their material makeup can be reused or recycled, further exacerbating what I see as a massive financial and environmental fraud — and, at least in part, an industrial cover-up.
We have better options. This discussion explores some of them and further inspired me to address other fundamental human needs. With that in mind, here are some key areas you may want to research further in pursuit of a more resilient and fulfilling life.
