  1. Produce wind and solar energy locally. No need for imports. Europe and Germany need to speed up their transition to locally produced renewable energy. Subsidies for electric heat pumps to replace gas and oil boilers would help. Subsidies for electric vehicles would also help. Buying oil and gas from Russia pays for their war.

  2. An energy efficient home or business is more comfortable and saves money in the long run. Solar energy on your roof combined with battery storage can make people more independent from the grid and natural gas supplies. Add solar and supplemental electric heating or a heat pump for home or business heating.. All big box stores and manufacturing sites can support solar energy on their roofs or parking lots. Added insulation, double or triple glaze windows, energy efficient doors, energy efficient heating and cooling systems, energy efficient appliances, LED lighting, smart thermostats, solar panels combined with battery storage and a electric vehicle charger in the garage or car park. People are too focused on the short term costs and miss out on long term savings and comfort. Blower door testing and air sealing are under appreciated tools.Even if you have money to burn you should not waste it. Climate Change will impact everyone. Leave a better future for your children and grandchildren. Join in and speak up for the future of the planet

  3.  @catadoxas  Battery storage make wind and solar energy a 24 /7/365 day power source. You need a combination of both wind and solar. Solar works during the day and there is more wind at night. Battery storage levels out any fluctuations.
