1. They are ahead of the curve. I keep this in mind always.

I think my option will be to go back to my hometown or some other remote place to live a "wilderness adventure" year round.

4. Think about how fresh vegetables end up on your table out of season

...and think about what they use to grow those vegetables nowdays, and it should become more clear.

Our entire food infrastructure is incredibly dependent on cheap oil, from fertilizers and pesticides to transportation of both the raw and processed agricultural products.
