The only way to break this immoral system is to go hard with renewables and the transmission infrastructure needed to unlock its cost effectiveness.

Down here in NJ, we closed our Citizens accounts, too. The bank must stop financing private prison companies that facilitate ICE brutality. When we work together, we can achieve justice and decency.

When we curtail renewable energy, we are throwing away the cheapest power on the system. That’s not a technology failure, it’s a transmission failure. And building more fossil infrastructure on top of that? That’s not economics. That’s politics and it’s costing us. Someone please report this angle.

Renewable-heavy countries are seeing power prices fall—while fossil-dependent ones spike during conflict. At the same time, Europe is literally wasting cheap renewable energy because it didn’t build the transmission. We’re not paying too much for infrastructure. We’re paying more by not building it.
