Sustainable City Living on 1/10th of an Acre - Degrowth in the Suburbs

This film tells the story of one small family practicing urban sufficiency. They live on 1/10th of an acre in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. By living more simply and utilizing alternative technologies this household draws 75-80% less electricity from the grid than the Australian average (per capita). At the same time they're exporting five times that amount in solar energy back into the grid.
