Such an underrated point. The economics and strategic impact of renewables is obvious at this point. Every time there’s a price surge in petrol, I hope that the US would wake up and hasten the transition, but we just keep kicking our feet like toddlers.
I’ve totally fallen for markdown. I want more normies to know about it.
All the nice things about rich text with none of the Word.
Holy shit, they get a LAMP?!
This! Movement begets movement. The opposite is also true.
Also, just starting is often the hardest part until recovery fatigue sets in.
It’s winter in the northeast, and it’s been pretty brutal, so power has gone out repeatedly. I’m not planning around them, I just want to cook in the event there’s a multi day outage. And there’s been two this year.
I understand this rhetoric, but one extremely effective way of changing people’s opinions and broadening their world view is travel. Banning people from the US from traveling will only result in more insulation and “othering”.
That said, American tourists are 👏the 👏worst (I say as an American). We should act like what we are: guests. I’ve had the privilege to travel to five nations that don’t speak English as their native language and have learned my P’s and Q’s every time and it’s always paid off. I speak the language terribly, but I’m at least willing to try.
I just got an induction cook top and it’s amazing. WAY more efficient than alternatives, better indoor air quality as compared to gas. One problem: can’t cook if the power is out. Good ideas all around.
Just …use docker
It’s a pricey one, but a kegerator converted to corny kegs. Infinite seltzer water.
Plus room for another carbonated beverage of your choice.
