I was about to echo Count of Monte Cristo, but original language is French. Same with Les Miserables, which is the best. Lord of the Rings has to be on the list, and I was a sci-fi nerd, so Dune and Enders Game are high on my list.

Congratulations, you've turned NYC into the Midwest!

Also prices do not equal bills, and people only actually care about their bills. I live in DC, and while my "prices" have increased more than anywhere else in the country, my actual electricity bill has gone down. Way down, thanks to efficiency and solar.

Having kids helps with that...😒

We're both proud colleagues!

Or, you know, policy solutions to stop it getting worse in the first place...

FWIW looks like the wind and solar tax was removed, but the credits were still ended.

Not sure, this post was about the amendment not to kill 25C (residential energy efficiency), 45L (energy efficient new home construction), 179D (energy efficient commercial and multifamily buildings), and 25D (residential clean energy). All Republicans but Collins and Murkowski voted against those.

Totally agreed that the energy burden percentage increasingly in use is arbitrary. We now recommend using the Nevada approach: set the target at the median energy burden for the state as a whole, which is typically less than 3%. dwss.nv.gov/uploadedFile...

Glad to hear delicious decarbonization isn't dead yet!

But there is still something you can do. Tell your stories, especially to members of Congress. There is still time to save energy assistance programs, weatherization, ENERGY STAR, rebates and tax credits for energy efficiency improvements, standards for appliances and new buildings, and so much more
