Energy vampires
Just as they exist in life amongst people, they exist in other forms too.
For our Whare Rongoā, the energy vampire is the kettle/hot water jug.
We don't see this if the whare is connected to the grid. It's taken for granted and is translated into dollars on your bill.
Off the grid, there's no hiding.
Our whare shelter us but that doesn't mean that we take it for granted. Next time you boil the jug for a tea or coffee, ask yourself if you REALLY need it, or are you just enabling an energy vampire?
