    But it’s not just the status quo. If we don’t jump off the precipice, things were starting to turn around in. Several ways.

    For me it’s the environment. I grew up when concerns about the environment were getting real, we were hearing about the scare of global warming, etc. we all started recycling and there were some big wins: clean air act, clean water act, ozone hole treaty, etc, but it’s coming up on half a century and we’ve just gotten worse in so many ways. But the infrastructure act is finally showing results and might be a turn around. EVs are starting to enter the mainstream, EV trucks are coming. I’m not so positive about BEV trains but at least they’re a thing. Renewable energy is the cheapest choice and finally growing rapidly. We have huge amounts of grid storage in place…… things are finally happening
