visited my sister in-law's on the weekend in deepest darkest maple ridge...
their family lives in a 3800 square foot home which is very nice and i can see the attraction to living in a large home with lots of space
i almost got sucked into "the dream" but some anchored portion of me said "hey, wait a minute"
home builders still don't use methods to reduce environmental impact on a large enough scale - passive heating, solar water heating, grid tied power supplies, heat pumps, triple glazed windows, and as little wasted space as possible
and how much room does a family of four need?
i find it sad that the whole message of less; simplicity; decluttering; respect just isn't working and it pushes me to thinking that things are going to get a lot worse before they even approach being better
