Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. A hilarious, adventure filled memoir, for fans of Bill Bryson, that shows it ain't easy being green.From the award-winning director and star of American Hemp Farmer comes "an antic and engaging account of one man's giant step toward a smaller carbon footprint" (St. Petersburg Times)."If you're a fan of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy-style humor-and also looking to find out how to raise your own your own livestock to feed your ice-cream fetish-Farewell may prove a vital tool."-The Washington PostLike many Americans, Doug Fine enjoys his creature comforts, but he also knows full well that they keep him addicted to oil. So he wonders- Is it possible to keep his Netflix, his car, and his Wi-Fi, and still reduce his carbon footprint?In an attempt to find out, Fine ups and moves to a remote ranch in New Mexico, where he brazenly vows to grow his own food, use sunlight to power his world, and fuel his car with restaurant grease. Along the way he uncovers a slew of surprising facts about alternative energy, organic and locally grown food, and climate change.Whether he's installing Japanese solar panels or defending the goats he found on Craigslist against coyotes, Fine's extraordinary undertaking makes one thing clear- It ain't easy being green. Like many Americans, Doug Fine enjoys his creature comforts, but he also knows full well they keep him addicted to oil. So he wonders: Is it possible to keep his Netflix and his car, his Wi-Fi and his subwoofers, and still reduce his carbon footprint? In an attempt to find out, Fine moves to a remote ranch in New Mexico, where he brazenly vows to grow his own food, use sunlight to power his world, and drive on restaurant grease. Never mind that he has no farming, mechanical or electrical skills. Whether installing solar panels, defending goats he found on Craigslist against coyotes, or co-opting waste oil from a local restaurant to fill the tank in his Ridiculously Oversized American Truck, Fine's undertaking makes one thing clear: It ain't easy being green. In fact, his journey uncovers a slew of surprising facts about alternative energy, organic and locally grown food, and climate change.—From publisher description.
