What if you spend your money on solar panels? We produce twice as much power as we consume


It's better to consume very few electricity, produced from nuclear for example, than setting up solar energy (with a significant loss on conversion and a footprint in materials, as well as nuclear plants, but what I mean is it's more our lifestyle that matters rather than the solutions themselves

Indirectly consuming few electricity means you've few devices which also have a number of footprints, so it's quite a large gain

The only counter example to what I said is maybe buying land to convert it to a food forest / permaculture, and save it from another guy building a villa with swimming pool
