We need to return to vernacular architecture, passive solar design, smaller homes in walkable neighborhoods. Our overhead for just existing in the US is insanely high and it's hard to opt out. Small towns and unincorporated communities need to decide to make it possible for some part of their population to opt out.
We invest too much in worshipping the big city, among other things.
