Roughly 30–40% of U.S. corn production — about 30 million acres — is dedicated to ethanol. That same land area could support around 5,000 gigawatts of solar capacity, which is 3–4 times the total nameplate capacity of the entire U.S. electric grid. We don't have a land problem.

We've gone completely battery powered for lawn equipment and, while it's still not fun to mow the lawn, I feel better watching my kids do it now than if they were using gas-powered equipment.
Just saw this ad during an MLB game. Pretty cool that pushing battery powered equipment is now the default for power tools. A quiet, successful clean energy revolution that is rarely talked about. youtu.be/7JX7xDbP7mc?...

My daughter voted for the first time today.
As she cast her ballot, the poll worker announced, "First time voter!" Everyone at the polling station clapped for her. She was deeply embarrassed as only a 19 year old can be. This is community celebration of citizenship.
And an excellent parent day.

Contrary to some media reports heat pumps are a mature technology and have been around for more than 100 years:
✅ The first heat pump as we know it today was built by Austrian engineer Peter von Rittinger in 1856.
✅ Heat pumps were installed in peoples’ homes many decades ago.
