About this listen

 There is one thing you will hear me say again and again. As long as someone else is in control of your resources, they are in fact in control of your life. Consequently, my solution to that problem was to develop a sustainable, self reliant lifestyle. Not only that, but I’ve lived off the grid for more than 20 years. This podcast is not only about sustainable living it is also about teaching you to take more control over your life by being in control of many of your resources. It is possible to live a life without debt, produce much of your own food, have much more personal freedom, as well as increased personal security and peace of mind. So join me as I discuss diverse topics associated with sustainable living, off grid living, and share some of my hilarious and sometimes incredible adventures. My goal is to make you realize that you can also have a wonderful sustainable life that is adventurous, enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding. I will also make you question why you live the way you do now. Besides this podcast, I have a companion blog at www.offgridlivingnews.com Enjoy!!!© 2025 Adventures in Sustainable Living Biological Sciences Earth Sciences Natural History Nature & Ecology Science

    234_Is It Legal to Live Off the Grid?
    Jun 4 2025

    Many years ago when I decided to live off the grid, everyone around me thought I was crazy. Fast forward 25 years and now everyone wants to know how it is that I do what I do.

    Living off the grid is now becoming an increasingly common choice for a long-term lifestyle. Just like anything else, it has it’s pros and cons but so does living in suburbia.

    One of the questions I most commonly encounter is whether or not it is legal to do so. I’ve certainly heard a read about a number of people that have ran into trouble with local authorities for just trying to live a simple life.

    So join me in this episode where I am going to discuss it it legal to live off the grid.

    233_Why Favoring Development Over Conservation is a False Assumption
    May 28 2025

    Humanity has not always been the best at looking into the future. We tend to do whatever we are going to do and never give a lot of thought to the consequences. But as I always like to say, everything we do has a price.

    Over time we have always favored development over conservation. We have always framed those two choices as an either/or situation. Because of that we are now paying the price of climate change, environmental degradation and widespread pollution.

    We are now faced with a choice. Continue as we have always done or focus on conservation. So join me for episode 233 Why Favoring Development Over Conservation is a False Assumption.

    232_Building Resilience and Adapting to Change
    May 21 2025

    No matter what you do, some day something is going to come along and change your world without your permission. No one is immune to such things. This of course can create a tremendous amount of stress.


    But this is where our personal resilience comes into play. Our resilience allow us to adapt to change and deal with the unexpected in a healthy way. But resilience is also directly tied to sustainability. Both concepts are interconnected and often reinforce one another. Both are crucial concepts necessary for balancing our world, our environment and even our day to day lives as well as our personal well being.


    So join me for E 232 where I am going to give you some constructive tips on Building Resilience and Adapting to Change.

This has been the best Podcast series about sustainable living I've ever heard. What I appreciate the most about this Podcast is, Patrick, the host, actually "walks the walk" and doesn't make you feel like you have to live exactly like him in order to make a difference. He says many times that even if you can just make a small change, a difference can be made.This has motivated me to make even more changes than I have in 15 years.

I have appreciated Patrick's research and reiterating of why we should live sustainably. He gives great examples and really paints of picture of what you can do to live more sustainably and why you should live more sustainably.

My favorite part at the end of an episode, Patrick will give you a small, easily attainable goal to work toward.
