"Instead of protesting, i should spend my time showing people how to live a sustainable lifestyle."

"I should spend my time writing about how to build green, continuously available, electricity."

Yes, and how to setup aquaponics systems,and use CRISPR, and 3D printers, and use crypto, and make biodiesel, and...

Together these things make a complete system to produce the goods and services we need, and when we make those things ourselves, we no longer are dependent on corporations, or need a job to buy them, so we don't need to pay taxes that pay for cops and murderers all over the world either.

None of these things are done being developed either. Today you can go on thingiverse and get STL files that will enable you to print some doodad that someone else already designed. Soon there will be a similar mechanism to share CRISPR designs to make yeast that makes vitamins, or Losartan, or other drugs and additives, or all sorts of things, like feedstock for 3d printers.

I'm working on a plan for a bioprinter presently. Modern inkjet printers have too fine a resolution to print cells. 96 dpi is better for cells to pass through than the 1200 dpi printers more common today. I have heard there is an open source hardware source for such an inkjet printer, and some ideas I have for construction with living material may soon come to fruition, pun intended.

Actually, all we really need to do is start doing these things, and as we succeed people will admire our accomplishments and want those benefits for themselves. As tech improves, it will be ever easier to get those benefits going forward.

You'd almost have to put the world in house arrest to stop it.

Oh, wait..

The solar panel on the hood of my truck starts more conversations with people ready to start down that path. Honestly, it's a better chick magnet than a puppy.

One of the things about printing cells that no one has been bringing up is magnetism.
Putting a cell in certain kinds of magnetic fields causes changes in the cells.
I believe you will find one that can take apart and put together cells.

A lot of the revolutionary medical stuff in the near future will be the application of magnetics for healing.

Baby steps. First we need to gain the ability to provide our own medications. Then we can improve those medications, with that leisure not having to slave away for others avails us.
