Mother Nature's Resources

Blogs, Facebook, Forums etc. Our world's foundation is relying on something that is very fragile: media and internet, or even more fragile: electricity. What are our chances when the electricity strikes out? They're not so big.
We need to start living a more balanced life and get back to our true nature. We can't rely on money, electricity and the government. You don't need to look far to see how a natural disaster effects a whole country, just look at Japan; what can the government do? They are just human beings.
A good idea is to as much as possible become self-sufficient; grow your own vegetables is a great example. I believe that food and other things that we are dependent on is going the get more and more expensive and less available.
We can't live in luxury anymore, it's crucial for us to start using Mother Nature's resources.
