No power?
Kein Strom?

Did you know?

Batteries are manufactured with built-in obsolescence. This means that they are basically made to die - you can expect from one to two years of usage before you have to buy a new battery or change your phone (that means, you'll get a new battery anyway!)

The Good Life

In the mid-1970s there was a TV sit-com (situational comedy series) in the UK that focused on a couple who were trying to live ?off grid': to be self-sufficient and live in an environmentally friendly way. Today this way of life is not unknown to most of us, but few of us really attempt it. There are, of course, masses of resources availale - many are online! - should one wish to attempt it, but most people find it is really not a viable option. Can you truly imagine living without your smartphone, without a laptop, without so many of the conveniences we take for granted today? There are communities trying to take the ?best' of modern technology and pair this with living in a consciously eco-friendly way, so that you can still have a phone or computer, still have electricity, but all in a way that is not so detrimental to our earth. Many electricity providers offer renewable options, for example, you can install solar panels to offset costs (to the planet as well as to your wallet), and you can grow many of your own fruit and vegetables, no matter where you are.
