Quay trở lại những năm 1960 và 1970, thế giới ngày càng nhận thức được tác động tàn phá của ngành công nghiệp đối với môi trường và mọi người bắt đầu suy nghĩ nghiêm túc về các cách bảo vệ môi trường. Có một người đàn ông đặc biệt bị ảnh hưởng bởi chủ đề này là Gerard Morgan-Grenville. Khi Morgan-Grenville đi làm ăn kiếm sống như một người làm vườn, ông nhận thấy những dấu hiệu của sự thiệt hại đã xảy ra ở vùng nông thôn xung quanh anh ta. Không lâu trước khi Morgan-Grenville quyết định rằng ông phải làm gì đó trong tình huống này. Ông cảm thấy rằng nếu mọi người có thể được chỉ bảo một cách sống tốt hơn thì có thể họ sẽ quan tâm đủ để cố gắng bảo vệ môi trường vô giá của họ.
Ông Morgan-Grenville đã quyết định thành lập một dự án chứng minh điều gì đang xảy ra với môi trường xung quanh của chúng ta và những gì chúng ta có thể làm được. Vì vậy, năm 1975, Morgan-Grenville đã tạo ra Trung tâm Công nghệ Thay thế (CAT) tại một ngôi làng ở xứ Wales.
Mục đích chính của CAT là tìm kiếm một lối sống sinh thái tốt hơn bằng cách sử dụng công nghệ không gây tổn hại cho môi trường. Một trong những điều quan trọng nhất mà ban đầu CAT đã làm là khám phá và thực hiện một loạt các kỹ thuật và để tìm ra cái nào có tác động phá hoại ít nhất trên thế giới xung quanh chúng ta. Hơn nữa, CAT cung cấp thông tin và lời khuyên cho mọi người trên khắp nước Anh và trên toàn thế giới. Nếu ngày càng có nhiều cá nhân được thông báo về mức độ thiệt hại mà lối sống hiện đại của chúng ta đang gây ra cho hành tinh, có thể nhiều người trong số họ sẽ chuẩn bị để tìm kiếm các giải pháp thiết thực cho các vấn đề môi trường.
