Last I heard, the estimate of upkeep on solar was about 5% of the cost of fuel for the same amount of power but that was a couple of years ago. Then again, again years ago, I saw a BU prospective business which was automating solar panel cleaning and have seen self-cleaning surfaces for solar panels ideas since.

I remember a manual for rooftop gardens from Montreal back in the 1970s.
There are lighter growing media than soil and, of course, hydroponics and aeroponics.

Heard Mitt Rmoney say LBJ would have
stopped his opponent's legal problems
so Biden should've.
Didn't hear anyone ask
how LBJ's silence on Nixon's
back-door sabotage of Paris Peace Talks
worked out for LBJ & the Dems in the 1968 election.

@andrewrgross
Been promoting & practicing Solar IS Civil Defense for about 20 years in my own small way: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2007/3/30/317777/-

I thought one way to make it happen was through farmers' markets

Mentioned practical civil defense actions at a recent local XR strategy meeting but I don't know if they'll pick up on the idea.

I'd feel a lot better if XR, Fridays for the Future, et cetera were doing real emergency climate prep besides their political stuff.

Every day is Christmas at the library and a good librarian is a combination of Santa Claus and Sherlock Holmes.
