Living With Less!

(from the folks who brought Living Without Money :-)

This just came in an email from my friend Line Halvorsen who produced the video "Living Without Money". Looks like Simple Living is an idea whose time has come. Well, if its not here yet, this kind of work will help it to grow. Hooray!

Here's the explanation from their very new website (just getting started) followed by several videos, one explaining living with less and the other some of the with and wisdom of George Carlin (relax, this one is not so profane). They have a fundraiser in progress (http://www.indiegogo.com/livingwithless) to get their website up and running ad-free. I chipped in a hundred bucks and encourage you to do what you can.

LivingWithLess.net will be an innovating web portal presenting inventive ideas on how to live a more sustainable and socially-connected life.e. The site will be packed with perspective-changing tips, links, videos and smart suggestions about how to save money and achieve sustainability in our personal lives while building stronger and more connected local communities. The team behind this web portal is the filmmakers of the award-winning documentary "Living Without Money." (www.livingwithoutmoney.org)

Reuse, reduce, recycle, de-clutter, share, barter, grow your own, and heal yourself are some of the key concepts on Living With Less.net. We're doing an extensive research for you and will prepare all the information you need in one well-edited and userfriendly webportal.

Living With Less.net offers visitors a fun and easy way to search for useful tips on for example alternative holidays, free accommodation and low-cost transport, and gives them access to experiences like learning to grow their own food, generate their own energy and live more sustainable and enjoyable lives.

So far only the squares Travel "Work abroad" and "Smart Transport" are active, but maybe you can get an idea of what this can be once we finish?

Why do we need your help?

We'd like for the Living With Less.net portal to be completely not-for profit – with no annoying ads or pushy sponsors on the site. But this means we need help from those who believe in our vision. Creating a website with an unconventional design and content that requires extensive research costs more money that we can pool together, but we can turn this into something big if every person who likes it just pitches in a small donation. We like the idea of opening this up to the greater global community!
