    A community that uses the natural recourses in low amounts and only what they really need for living an no more than that. For me there would be no electricity necessary. Not buying anything from big corporates and only buying from small local businesses if anything needed. If that was to happen all over the world, people would have to realize the that that is actually the right way of living, it brings happiness, calmness, and health. The world would have to slow down and people would have to get more out of their comfort zone and find comfort in sustainable way of living.
