Right on. A power grid that is tied to a floating useage rate set daily like all commodities. We could have it like the UK where they drop pound coins into meter boxes to cook and heat their home for a few minutes.
Tundra doesn't release meeethane while thawing it releases it when it freezes. No matter how much global climate warming change people pump CO2 up their asses they will never stop it from freezing in the northern latitudes.
Off the grid eh? Really? How many panels do you have producing how many Kw/h? What was the cost? Were any of the minerals involved in contruction of the panels blood minerals? Were they produced in a country with first class human rights in an eco-friendly and human friendly factory and shipped...
Even on the quietest of mornings I'll never give up my toaster. No sunshine no toaster either. So screw that. I'm not going to **** in a box to run a genny for 15 seconds and have half toasted toast either.
I'll never give up my breakfast of watts, volts amps and toast.
