Making my first clean kilowatt | Grist
I have to tell you, it is an amazing feeling to know that all day, every day, I am making clean electricity on my own rooftop that does not blow up mountains, cause asthma and heart attacks, spew mercury into the air and water, or leave behind toxic waste.

But at the end of the day, knowing that we have taken a big step to create a better world for our daughter is the only payback I need.
