Most of my life has been in the *mess around* era. Things changed drastically over the last 5 to 10 years, and we’re firmly in the *find out* stage. A lot of people haven’t believed models and predictions, but seeing is believing, and climate disasters have been raining down on us one after another.

Take the easy win because if we build enough renewable power, the fossil fuel part will take care of itself.
