What is this word “acknowledge” doing? What’s a better word to use?:
“ However, advocates acknowledge that no single model will work everywhere, as communities face different economic, geographic, and social constraints.

“The lesson so far, Griffith says, is less technical than expected.

“"People don't trust the internet a lot, they don't trust the government a lot, but they do trust their neighbours," he says.

“The fact that neighbours are showing neighbours how to save money and save the planet at the same time — that's the secret sauce.”

Yay! Love the secret sauce - and what Yack’s achieved 🤗
Another interesting takeaway:

“A new study conducted by research consultancy 89 Degrees East polled 1,965 people living in renewable energy zones across Australia, suggesting that the majority — 63 per cent — support the shift to renewable energy.

“However, 33 per cent of respondents believed most people in their area did not support the transition, showing a significant gap between actual and perceived support.”
