    I'm going strong :) .  Since until now I haven't felt like I needed something other than food ( which I partly get from local systems) I have not felt the need to support or participate in any economy (including the sharing economy :)).  On my blog www.thegreenpumpkin.com I share my thoughts on the power of small habits to create a more sustainable world , and the need to buy and consume less. Hope to meet some of you there!
