I think remote work, is probably another mini-revolution that can happen that would change our society for the better in regard to the climate footprint. Good point on revitalizing small towns. But it needs larger companies to start offering this type of work. I am currently hesitant to move to a smaller town or an area with less tech presence because if I have to switch, I don't know if next employer will accept remote work. > Basically, people would apply to the fund, low income home owners would be prioritized, the fund would pay for the initial installation of the panels, and then the home owners would repay the cost of the panels over the course of their life through their utility bill payments. In this way, we could gradually get solar on basically every house in the city. That's a great idea. I like it. Good luck running, I'd support you if you ran in my town. > lie about the state of the climate and what these kids are going to be up against? Any issues can be framed in various ways and if it induces children to cry and be paralyzed by fear, anger whatever I don't think it's productive. Children, and perhaps adults, do better if besides seeing a problem, they are also offered some way to solve it. "Climate is changing, but here what we are going to do to help...". Stuff like "We are writing to a Congressperson, we are selling our car, taking a bus on Fridays etc" is a lot different than "You'll drown in a flood, or live on the streets or die of hunger and nothing can be done".
