Purpose
Ike's Guide is dedicated to providing practical solutions for ways to reduce (and hopefully eliminate) our use of fossil fuels.
Reducing fossil fuel use is difficult because we depend on fossil fuels for so many aspects of our lives.
New technology is constantly being released that helps free us from the need for fossil fuels, but it is hard to discover practical solutions that we can take advantage of right now.
Ike's Guide is a collection of such practical solutions.
It isn't meant to be read and absorbed in one sitting.
Very few people have the luxury of being able to replace major appliances and infrastructure overnight.
Rather, we need to take care when it is time to replace something and learn what a fossil free approach is.

Celebration
These are exciting times we live in.
Our culture is geared for weekly indulgence and celebration.
Why not put some meaning into the celebration?
Buy a round of drinks for a friend who biked to work.
Throw a party to celebrate a new washing machine.
Seriously.
We also have a constant stream of occasions to shop for.
We buy gifts for weddings, birthdays, holidays, and sundry other events year round.
It can be tough to come up with creative things to give to people, so why not stop by here to come up with some ideas?

Business
Notice that the name of the web-site is "ikesguide.com".
Those last four characters, ".com" mean that this is a commercial site.
While there might be some fun pictures, innane musings, and useful tid-bits of information, the idea is to encourage buying things.
If you find the information on this web-site useful, please follow a link and buy something.
It won't cost you anything more than going through different channels, but it will give a little bit back to help support and grow the site.
Consider the tremendous amount of positive kharma you'll accumulate if you buy someone a gift through this web-site:
- You will buy a gift for a friend.
- The gift will support our society by reducing our dependence on fossil fuels.
- The business that you purchase the gift from will have successfully made a sale.
- This web-site will have more resources to continue to grow.
That's some pretty serious kharmic synergy and accumulation!
If you have an idea for something to add, post it in the blog comments or send email to Ike here:
