It was challenging to figure out where to put this. It’s also environment, and it turns sharply political for Act III.

If you’re already familiar with renewables, there’s not a lot to learn here but the comparisons with fossil fuels and ethanol. Given that I’ve been on solar since 2023, I appreciated what he was saying to the uninitiated.
