Bill Coperthwaite was a pioneer in the field of sustainable living. In 1975, he and his wife moved to a remote island in British Columbia with their two young children. They lived off the land, built their own home, and raised their own food. Coperthwaite's goal was to create a self-sufficient lifestyle that would be sustainable for generations to come.

Coperthwaite's experiment was a success. He and his family lived on the island for over 30 years, and they never had to rely on outside sources for food or energy. Coperthwaite's story is an inspiration to anyone who is interested in living a more sustainable life.
