Green Living

20,000,000 Chinese live a life very close to nature. They live in caves. Many families have had a cave as their home for generations. Caves stay cool in summer and warm in winter, so they are very efficient. And you don't have to sacrifice modern conveniences to live in a cave in China. 80% of them have indoor plumbing. Most are wired so that modern conveniences abound. Plus, there is a certain cachet to live as Mao did when he was a revolutionary.

Are there any nice 'des-res' caves in Rhode Island, I wonder?
