Palm oil as a bio fuel is one of the many reasons we must stop burning stuf for energy.

"Solar doesn't work if the sun isn't shining." Partially true (PV works on overcast days), but irrelevant.
Renewables are much more than just solar.

πWave

And, above all, ENERGY EFFICIENCY - the one Big Energy don't want you doing.

I'll admit to borrowing that phrase from the excellent @bobbyllew.bsky.social and the excellent Artist-formally-known-as Fully Charged, now Everything Electric. It applies to the electricity grid as much as it does to ground transport, and of course space heating too.
#StopBurningStuff
Totally off the gas today, and one of our cars (the one that does the most distance) is an EV for over two years π

Isn't it weird how the assholes who are trying to drive the world into a war for oil in Iran are the exact same assholes who have spent half a century doing everything in their power to perpetuate dependence on oil.

Just realized: Kidsβ lungs and #climate, not cash, drove our campaign to get #Disneyland to electrify Autopia. But turns out weβll be helping the House oβ Mouse shield itself from oil shocks, too. Ur welcome, Mickey. #StopBurningStuff
Oh the irony.
Bring it on.
Clean energy from the world around us.
Stop digging up the locked up carbon.
#StopBurningStuff
By next Tuesday we shall also be 100% electric at home. No domestic gas for heating, cooking nor hot-water.
Heat-pump hot-water, split-system ACs, and induction cooktop with electric oven too. $90 power bills rather than $760 gas bills this winter π

Well ahead on my EV after 2.5 years. Near-zero driving & running costs, ZERO fuel purchased. I charge it normally overnight for $4.50, or if I can, top-up in the middle of the day for 3 free-electric hours π€·ββοΈ
Petrol was costing me $70 per week, in 2023.

The long-term goal however (within 20-25 years) should be to #getoffthegas and #stopburningstuff , for the security of life on our planet!
Protect the climate, there is no 'Planet B'. Methane is about 80 times as serious in the short-term for climate warming than CO2 is π’π
So glad to be gas-free as of next Tuesday ππ

New split-system reverse-cycle AC and heat-pump hot water system installed today. Induction cooktop going in next week.
Then we will be 100% electric π
Solar & battery by June π

Best way to control war/oil induced price inflation is to get energy independence. Convert to EV transport and electrify everything. Go renewables ASAP!
#getoffthegas
#stopburningstuff
SO happy to be converting to solar & battery this year to go 100% electric π
#stopburningstuff
#getoffthegas
Imagine how much less important the Iran thing would be if we had thrown the climate change denialists in the stocks, as they always deserved, and really pushed for renewables.
Not all gloom, though. Right now less than 5% of the UK's power is being generated by burning stuff.
#StopBurningStuff
I can afford to go to the US , my last 18 night WDW vacation cost a lot but the same money gets me a heat pump and some more solar panels to stick it to trumpstien and his buddy Putin. #stopburningstuff
If only there was an (electric) alternative π€

#StopBurningStuff
Switch to Electricity
So very glad I have the EV now and we are on track to #getoffthegas and #stopburningstuff with new solar & battery ππ
This is the way
#StopBurningStuff
I still pay 23 cents for charging my car at night π #stopburningstuff
Solution: #StopBurningStuff
Also; oil β βenergyβ
In short, burning carbon fuels not only warms the planet we all depend on, it also fuels war in the volatile Middle East.
Electricity can be sustainably generated via the sun and wind, stored with batteries, & used for transportation & almost everything else.

#ElectrifyEverything
So very glad that I have just ordered our new solar/battery system together with all-electric home heating and appliances.
