Omg #NovaScotia needs this…

Most unreliable power, frequently gone in minor storms, system poorly maintained (including hazards), 8% hike last year for the highest rates with another 8% coming, brutal hack (ppl can’t access meter/accounts & yet get billed off guesses)…

#NSpower is brutal.

Projects led by community energy co-ops can be resilient, responsive and efficient, research shows. What’s holding them back in British Columbia?

January can be tough.
Combine that with the anxiety that the news cycle and doomscrolling create and ouch.
You owe it to yourself and those who love you to get outside and find the magic.
Its out there, even in January.

Nicht nur die Zahl der Buchhandlungen* in der kanadischen Provinz Nova Scotia ist pro Einwohner deutlich höher als in Deutschland; am erstaunlichsten sind Zahl und Trend bei Neugründungen.
* sowohl unabhängige Buchhandlungen, als auch mit Handelsketten
