        I like mobile generators and personal power. I do not like centralization of any kind.

        Any human you give your chain to, is a needless risk towards having your chain yanked.

          Exactly. We should all produce our own food, build our own cars, teach our own kids, dont use sewage. Yeehaw.

      In a market context, the price of fossil hydrocarbons must go up.

      In a non-market context, it depends on what tools are available.

      Maybe we should do a fundraiser for an ad campaign which shames needless use of combustion engine cars, fossil heating, flying, plastics, and meat consumption. Similar to the warnings on cigarette packages. And aimed at the well-informed, resourceful middle class which can change without real discomfort, and knows they can do better, but is too lazy to act.

      I think that would work. Much of advertising sells us pictures how we want to be seen by others - people are motivated by pride and what appears cool.
