Summary: Two 30-year-old "typical Americans" – i.e., ravenous consumers of fossil fuels -- learn to live without natural resources. Vito, a club bouncer, and Jahari, an event planner, get a tough lesson in taking things for granted. To do this, they'll move to Dancing Rabbits, an 'eco village' in Missouri that is 100% OFF THE GRID as they have no access to the power that comes from the usual grid of power and phone lines that run above our heads. As they set up house in a former 3,000-bushel grain bin, they will sustain themselves on clean power such as solar and wind. There are only 3 rules that they must follow: 1) say goodbye to fossil fuels, 2) work as members of the community helping out with everything from the backbreaking work in the farm to cooking vegan meals and 3) recycling everything, including their own waste! To follow these rules they will have live in a mostly car-free culture, grow and eat only organic foods and conserve their water use with solar showers and rain-catch systems. The only cars they drive are run on natural diesel they get from vegetable oil that must be hand cranked to fill the tank. Life takes a drastic change for these two partying New Yorkers.
