"Oil & #gas are not straightforwardly interchangeable with #electrical power. #Electricity does not yet fuel large commercial airliners, nor does it propel #petrol #cars or power #gas boilers. Accordingly, the answer is to Electrify Everything... Reliance on #market mechanisms & #private providers to encourage millions of #households to transition to #electric cars or heat pumps means we are nowhere near being able to electrify everything."

Then hours on the new electric loader, moving mulch and logs and filling holes dug days ago with it. Put some potatoes and a few of the newly purchased plants in the ground.
