 btw... you don't need electricity to run an old school diesel engine

and it's probably cost effective to turn a shit-ton of rape seed oil into diesel with a bunch of potassium hydroxide you made out of wood ashes, or, i mean, for now easy enough to buy drums of KOH anyway

so, yeah, i guess a lot of people are not gonna be ready for that

auroras in the subtropics are a warning
