It was challenging to figure out where to put this. It's also environment, and it turns sharply political for Act III.

If you're already familiar with renewables, there's not a lot to learn here but the comparisons with fossil fuels and ethanol. Given that I've been on solar since 2023, I appreciated what he was saying to the uninitiated.

Get yourself some Act II if you plan on making it all the way through ... it's an hour and a half.

Text can't capture the emotion and vulnerability that Alec put on the line here. A summary betrays the time and effort he put into making the video. He's even got carefully crafted subtitles in case you watch it silently.

    When I read a summary of a film before I go to watch it, I don’t assume that I have absorbed the intensity of an actor’s performance. I have been disappointed too many times by excessively long YouTube videos to spent an hour and a half without knowing what the general content of the video is.
