A good piece below. One thing I'll never understand is why every parking lot, particularly in the SE US, doesn't have solar covered parking lots. You see these 1,000 car parking lots and it's just uncovered concrete everywhere. It's hot as hell in the summer. Would be nice for shaded parking too.

I can't even choose which sentence to highlight in this very good piece......just go read the whole damn thing. Those who argue that we should actively sacrifice nature for the energy transition are parroting industry profit-protecting fatalism. It is entirely possible be fast + minimise damage.

A renewable energy transition that doesn’t harm nature? It’s not just possible, it’s essentialtheconversation.com Rapidly reaching net-zero is vital to avoiding the worst ravages of climate change. But doing so in a way that damages nature is self-defeating.
