Another way of putting it: someone 100 years in the future, looking around at the benefits clean energy has brought, will look back at someone today and say, "yes, obviously, spend whatever you need to spend to get here as rapidly as possible! There's no conceivable way you could spend 'too much'!"

"You’ve got a right to the sunshine that falls on your home, whether you’re a renter with a balcony or a homeowner." - Bill McKibben in this excellent piece in @motherjones.com: www.motherjones.com/environment/...

Plug-in solar & batteries are decentralized, affordable & easy-to-install tech for everyone, no matter what this myopic administration is doing to undermine our future. @rollingstone.com ☀️https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/trump-war-solar-blocking-green-power-1235404339/
