Gardening for the Philippine Zombie Apocalypse

[fred]

Since going 100% Carnivore,I must admit that my veggy growing days have been put on the back burners just a little bit.

Since going 100% Carnivore

Lot of folks swear by the Carnivore diet.  Drive on.

I am thinking from the perspective of what retired expats can do today to ....

lower or eliminate expenses, harden lifestyles against disaster, useful ways to exercise and improve health, improve the individual living space, remediate their neighborhoods, and pass on skills and a concern for the world to future generations.

This is native Oregano.  Grows like a weed.  Super strong flavor.  We grind it up with a touch of Cely Laboyo and mix in a little sabon for spray on pesticide.   Works pretty good.  Washes off in the rain though.

The recipe video is earlier in this thread.

As a thought exercise ........


If every family compound  created 50% of their nutritional, energy, and shelter needs .....   If those expenses are eliminated ...... done away with ....

what effect would that have on resource depletion, or pollution, or just in time supply chains, the fiat currency slavery system,  The Warfare/Welfare paradigm,  "Wealth Inequality" ?


Not that I believe this conspiracy theory ..... but .....

If every family compound start sequestering carbon out of the atmosphere into the soil,  what happens to "climate change"? 

If every family living space is green-ified .... how much will the global temperature be reduced by plant transpiration?  How much air is filtered?  How much of urburbia is de-congested and reclaimed?


If everyone substitutes 50% of their diet with locally produced, organically grown food stuffs ...... 

What happens to global health?  I.Q. levels and mental health? The dia-besity pandemic?  Medical and insurance industries?  The faux food industry?

Got my curiosity peaked.  What's all in the pictire?

What's all in the pictire?

Successful test. 

Idled a 8hp engine on a mixture of charcoal and road side trash .......  for 6 hours.

Today is after test system examination and prep for test #2.

Tomorrow, barring unforeseen circumstances,  we will run an identical test with a irrigation pump as a load.

test with a irrigation pump as a load.

Well that was gratifying.  Thank you God.

We ran for 5 hours pumping 4" irrigation pipe full.  Shutdown early because relatives wanted to go home before sunset. 

My best guess is one 200L drum of charcoal would irrigate for about 6 maybe 7 hours nonstop.  And the quality of our charcoal was piss poor to downright sh_tty.  Made from a wood pile that has been out in the open for 5 or 6 years now.  No telling what the run time will be if I used decent wood.






That puts a book end on the projects I told y'all about.   Enjoy your reset.

That looked like a fun day.  Educational as wells, but would have been fun to see something like that come to life in your own yard.  Makes gardening a lot less expensive on the electrical/gas bill.
