There’s a limited supply of oil. It’s very expensive and wars are fought for it.

There is endless sunlight. It’s free and no wars are fought for it.

Let’s choose solar.

@nickofnz Trying my best to choose solar here. Sadly I live on the south side of a tall hill in a rented house with a whole bunch of trees uphill of me, and even with 500 watts of portable solar panels, it's questionable whether I'll have enough sunlight to fully charge the portable generators all winter. But at least I'm on the solar ladder!

@mwt personal solar is not the only option. Big solar farms can be connected to grid, and power many houses with renewable energy
