How can the poor afford solar? Its true its made, seriously as I know how to say it, almost impossible in the US. At the same time its more in reach than ever before. Look up 'balcony solar.' My six figure relatives can't see affording it. But with almost five years of saving and buying year by year on under $25k gross income I largely installed my solar system and am writing this on stored electric power at night after cooking dinner on an induction cooktop. I feel like there are ten billion things I could say, but instead I'll say this: There are definitely issues with this, but the potential for slowing down the increase in destroying the planet's ability to sustain any life we might recognize in the near future, is like a weight has been lifted off my soul and scales have fallen from my eyes. I'm definitely knocking down my winter energy costs and will cover all of my energy costs with solar and battery storage. Simple consumption means easy solution. There's more to it, but for now, this is what I will share.
