Here's a commercial-scale thermal battery (hot rocks!) that is providing heat at 1800C, which is what you need for processes like steel & aluminum.
Industrial heat was one of those "difficult to decarbonize" sectors until, y'know, we tried.

Politicians & some media outlets have latched onto a narrative that recent immigrants, especially undocumented, are causing spikes in crime.
Research does not support the view. In fact, immigrants might have less law enforcement contact compared to native-born Americans.
