May? That shit was going to be abandoned the moment the child molester got voted into power.

Just remember, every time you use Google AI, you’re helping encourage these data centers to continue operating. I switched over to Ecosia as a search engine and browser, and have disabled the AI. Every little bit counts.

You’ve not seen true desperation before. I’m not saying that buying solar panels are wrong, I’m saying that people who are worried about dying of heat stroke or freezing to death (climate dependent of course) because the power is out may not act rationally.

I rather suspect that there will be a massive increase in domestic terrorism because of situations precisely like this over the next few years.

I don’t condone violence, I’m just stating that this is a logical byproduct of driving the general populace into a desperate situation where they have nothing to lose.

Do it, then the pedophiles can’t put as many boots on your neck to keep you down.

The best part is you can recycle the materials after they have reached the end of their useful lives. Some panels are still good after 40 years from what I remember reading.

Good! People need to do as much as they can, no matter how little it seems. It all adds up. Look at the Canadian boycott of the US, we’ve put a dent in several of their industries.

The world is now 500W closer to fossil fuel freedom!

Domestic production too, amazing!

As a Canadian, I wholeheartedly agree, and think that we should distance ourselves as much as is possible from the US. We are paying the wages of our sins, namely our complacency in selling our souls for NAFTA.

The Islamic terrorists are pedophiles (aka. child brides) and religious zealots (aka. Islamic extremism). The US are pedophiles (aka. release the Epstein files) and religious zealots (aka. “Christian” nationalists).

There is no difference, at their root. We need renewable energy and an abandonment of as much plastics and other petrochemicals as much as possible, so the world doesn’t suffer at the hands of both of these hegemonic terrorists.

This is following the same trend as cellphones did in Africa.

Excellent Smithers.

In the long run, the cost will be cheaper, because you don’t have to worry about the sun or wind being blocked by a bunch of greedy pedophiles.

I remember reading somewhere that as of the start of the US-Israel led war, total global oil demand was reduced by 1.7 million barrels a day because of EV tech and renewables. This war will only accelerate demand destruction of petrochemicals in general.

The next step? Make all corporations pay for the disposal or recycling of single-use packaging. Charge them a 1000% tax per pound of plastics used, and if they attempt to pass on the costs to the consumer, charge them the equivalent of 10 million Kuwaiti dinar per day of using the packaging.

I’m curious, do these solar kits also have built in battery storage or not? I know one of the units one of the companies mentioned in the article does.

I think it would be smart if all the kits had a battery built in, then people who had these kits would have an emergency backup for cell phone charging during a blackout or a natural disaster. During normal times, the battery backup could help them ease their power bills from peak consumption.

I hope the same thing starts happening with batteries.

That will put the excess manufacturing capacity in their markets to good use.

Something something bribery backfiring. Something something Dark Side.

So, somewhat like how Portugal gives people who have a substance dependency the choice of jail or participation in a treatment program.
