This is AMAZINGLY helpful! Thank You!

I enjoyed this well thought out video. I bought Michael Reynolds’s book way back in 1990. I have been living off grid for 4 years now. I agreed with everything except for the berkey. I used one for years until I tested the water with a ppm meter. I was getting a higher contaminate reading after filtering! Long story short I use a zero pure filter now. Watch Project Farm’s KZfaq video where he tests water purification systems.

Yes. Very good overview of the options. And I appreciate the resources you have shared for finding more information. Right now I live in an apartment, so establishing an off-grid water system is not an option. BUT, I can start thinking of ways to reduce my water consumption (for example, using my dishwater to flush the toilet and start doing more sponge baths), as well as finding a way to collect rain-water for my houseplants, even if it is only for a few months.

Great vid! love how much info there is in this one, all the links too!

I've been off grid for a few months...lol. bucket lugging 100% rain water. 😅

Great video. Urine is not sterile. If it were, we wouldn't be handing a urine sample to the nurse for labs to determine whether or not we have bacterial and viral infections. It can still be used for lots of things, but no, it is not sterile. When I had to haul water from a well into my Alaskan cabin with two toddlers, water usage became a significant life skill. We used the three dish tub method for washing dishes, the first with hot water (about 2-3" full), the others with an inch or so of room temp rinse water. I bathed the kids every 3-4 days in a washtub. I used about 1 gallon of water for myself once or twice a week, first dipping my head into a deep pail of water and washing it with a touch of natural shampoo. I used a cup to rinse out into a dish tub. When mostly rinsed, I washed my body with the barely soapy rinse water, then dipped my head into the remaining clean water for a final hair rinse and poured the remaining water over myself to clean myself off completely. 1 gallon or less did this with long hair. Another tip, though, is to cut your hair and you have less to wash. The rest of the week was a washcloth bath. Sometimes we just used a dry bath brush and then a very wet washcloth to wash off dirt and dead skin.

damn insanely high quality video, subbed 🤙

Nice resource. Thank you.

See my Dasher stlye washing machine reinvented, or not. Will be making a detailed, short video on it shortly, community page has many posts on several steps.

Great video thank.

Collecting rainwater is the best and easiest for city people like me.Its actually better than the city water.

Been drinking out of stream gull of fish snd eild animals forty years no filter no issues😊
