Want to know the mood of the muppets on climate change?
Randy tells it straight.
He wonders how we got so disconnected from nature, the plants, animals + planet which we are part of.
This bird watcher, plant, planet + animal lover wants us to protect plants + animals in their homes by changing how we live in ours.
How?
He wants us to get off gas, go all-electric + support renewables.
Why?
Electrifying everything (our cars and homes) and powering from renewables is the fastest way we can decarbonize, save money + the future of our people + planet.
What's wrong with gas?
Gas is a dirty, polluting fossil fuel.
Any fuel we burn pollutes our air, harming us, our environment, the plants + animals.
Getting off gas is big part of our renewable energy transition.
How to go all-electric?
Go solar.
(Rooftop solar is cheaper than grid electricity.)
Swap gas stove for induction.
(electric cooking is cheaper + removes harmful gas stove pollutants from the air that can cause respiratory illness.)
Swap gas hot water for heat pumps
(heat pumps use 1/3 to 1/4 the energy to heat the same thing with fossil fuels)
Choose reverse cycle aircon to heat + cool.
So energy efficient. Cool cool cool.
Insulate. Retro fit to plug draughts. Double glaze.
With these improvements we require less energy to cook, heat + cool our homes.
