Kenya went from fewer than 800 EVs in 2022 to nearly 25,000 in 2025. A 32-fold increase in three years. 90% of them are motorbikes. The EV revolution doesn't always look like a sedan. Sometimes it looks like a boda boda.

$1,508 per household. Electricity rising twice as fast as inflation (which is bad enough as it is). With the midterms are six months away, the cost of living is the voters' top concern and energy is the reason why.

You felt it at the gas pump. You felt it at the grocery store. Now it's in your insurance renewal and your utility bill. You don't have to live anywhere near a fire zone to feel the financial impact of extreme weather and wildfire season.

Solar farm by day. Cattle ranch also by day. A 21-acre site in Rutherford County, Tennessee just became the first in the country to combine solar power production with cattle ranching. The panels adjust for the cows. The cows eat the grass. 650 homes get power. Everyone wins.

In times of international crisis and rising demand for power, the logical thing to do is invest in renewables. They're sustainable, reliable, and affordable. Affordable power isn't a partisan issue. It's a quality of life issue. And it's one we all need to lock in and handle.

The UK went from 45% to nearly 65% renewable electricity since 2015. France is sitting at 95%. Brazil is at 89%. But someone in the comments will still tell you renewables are a fantasy that could never power a real country. Reality check: they already are.
