Developer, interested in retrofit and climate change. UK based, feeling the rat race is a bit too much. Would like to find a job in green somewhere.

This is really inspiring. One of the issues we've had with the Green Transition has been that wealthy people are able to get on the cheaper electricity bandwagon early.
Here is some evidence that solar is getting cheap enough that it's starting to make a real difference in developing countries.

@npub1kqh…8fse “Rolling coal” - where US anti-environmentalists modify their cars to inefficiently burn fuel. Sometimes used as a method of intimidating cyclists and EV drivers.

@npub1psd…9sr7 This should be the standard now.

I have heard that the UK is somewhat limited in the number that can be constructed because of geology limitations.

@npub1ykd…6j2y I wonder who they’ll vote for or if they’ll won’t at all?

Seems it’s traditional to do an #introduction so I’m passionate about fighting climate change and my focus is retrofitting old homes (lots of thermal mass, no cavity). I’m vegetarian and like video games. I’ll try to keep this politics free, except where dumasses make stupid climate decisions. I like science and space exploration.
