I like the format guys. Short and to the point stories, the tiny interjections are quite a cool idea too. Nicely done!

This is all well and good but I feel like we are missing the point. The media and the government are focusing on clean energy when we should be changing the processes in agriculture, industry, mass consumerism and how we manufacture our goods.

You’re right. But I also think it’s important to have stories which demonstrate ways that individuals can make a difference, rather than just shrugging and giving up because of the bigger problems. If everyone is demanding solar panels and insulation the market will adapt to provide that technology, for example.

@@sp762au Why Australia exports Megatons of coal it's completely futile.. we cant even stop chopping down trees like a bunch of lumberjacks that dont care.

Wonderful video, hopeful for much of these endeavours. Tragic to hear about the loss of 95% of kelp forests in Tas :(

If I can get my anaerobic digestion systems for households up and running, maybe I'll get a story here one day. With anaerobic digestion and biochar households can go beyond net-zero, and actually sequester large amounts of carbon into the soil for thousands of years. Oh yeah, and I'm living in Beauty Point, Tasmania.

Thinking that your doing any good by Insulating and putting solar panels on single family homes (that apart from being so poorly built they will have to be demolished in 30 years) not to mention they are so outisde of the city limits that they have very little or no public transport is completely missing the point

What's the best insulation for my 2 bedroom apartment? I can't cut into the thin drywall to put the proper insulation so I have to drill small holes for spray insulation or use something on the inside of my walls to damper the loud mouth neighbor's or else get a loud stereo and play it very loud to wake their babies up in the middle of the night. Like 2:30am or 3:00am until they call the police whích the police have been watching them due to several complaints from various neighbors & tents! They don't clean up their dog crap ever whích is in the lease + they hang óut in the stairwells all hours of the night which is also a rule in the lease to not do at anytime! Forgive me for venting to a total stranger please?
