Well, I've thought about that. It would probably cover the entire roof. Right now, the pool alone takes up about 400sf. 

We put in hurricane windows, which are also energy savers. Quadruple pane, compared with the single panes that we had (got rid of the shutters too).

Between that and the solar, we dumped about $30K. Need to stop the bleeding for a while.

Im pretty sure these two home generators come with inverters

Are these any good?

I spent about $10K for new air cooled 22KW Generacs at our remote equipment offices

the oldest are a year old, so far no issues


was spending $30K for water cooled industrial generators.  They are great and last 30 years.

time will tell, if they don't get much use, I think the $10K option is best, especially for residential 

By applying satellite corrections to SOCAT data from 1992 to 2018 to account for temperature differences between the surface and at a few meters’ depth, the researchers find a substantially higher ocean uptake of carbon dioxide than previously thought. They were able to do this thanks to data from a suite of satellites such as ESA’s Envisat, NOAA’s AVHRR, EUMETSAT’s MetOp series, and the Copernicus Sentinel-3 mission, firstly as part of the OceanFlux research project (part of ESA’s Science for Society program) and then continued within two EU-funded projects.

The corrected figures reveal that the net flux of carbon into the oceans is underestimated by up to 0.9 Gigatonnes of carbon per year – a significant amount that, at times, doubles uncorrected values.

“These results are consistent with independent estimates of the size of the oceanic carbon sink – those based on global ocean surveys by research ships,” adds co-author Jamie Shutler, also of the University of Exeter. “Now that these two separate estimates of the size of the carbon dioxide ocean sink agree pretty well, we can view and use their results with greater confidence, and trust that they are most likely giving us an accurate picture of what is going on.”

I think it's fairly astute and clever.  The imagery is good for him on this.

When you can get some positive imagery for doing absolutely nothing tangible, it's good.

I promise to lose my excess weight by 2060.

Well sure, it's what politicians have always done.

Yep. 

Gavin Newsom says no new ICE cars will be allowed to be sold in California in 15 years, by executive order.

He would be term-limited out in 6 years. 

So he won't have to deal with the fallout of his decision, which could be rescinded immediately by the next Governor because it's only an executive order and not a law. 

But he looks like he's doing something. 

I think by 2035 the market will have already gone to mostly EVs anyway for new vehicles, especially in urban/suburban areas.

And I think the changes inherent in autonomous are going to be fascinating and dramatic.
