New: Las Vegas Metro Area's
The world's clean energy transition is slacking. And the U.S. government is of no help. But the atmosphere, damaged by fossil fuel emissions, is on the verge of canceling life as we know it.
But don't despair.
Smart people on the ground, in cities and suburbs and towns – they're moving forward. The big switch from fossil fuels to clean energy is already happening in your metro area with things like
• all-electric vehicle fleets
• gas-free homes & buildings
• solar-topped parking
• virtual solar electricity, and
• lots of giant batteries
It's the local, metro-area companies, cities, and citizens who are the ones – slowly but surely – driving the world's Great Energy Transition.
No doubt, the world is a hot mess. But look closer, geographically, at metro areas. That's where the world's Great Energy Transition is taking place.
🇲🇽 🇺🇸 🇨🇦
The three countries of North America, for example, have a combined total of 469 official metropolitan areas. These metro areas are the centers of a nation's economic activity – where most people live and work and play. So, metros are where we can evaluate and grow big chunks of the Great Energy Transition.
In metro areas, you can actually see a better (or less bad) future taking shape.
What's the status of the world's clean energy transition – in the context of your metro area?
😎 Some industries and cities in your metro are adopting new energy tech faster than others. Their progress is amazing, admirable, and achievable.
😬 Other folks, well, not so much. Some metro-area businesses (and big corporations operating locally) are still skittish about modernizing their energy situation.
If you're a business just getting started with clean energy tech, look locally for some inspiration. The future is upon us.
Metro Status keeps track of clean energy deployment in your town's corporate and public sectors.
🤓 We monitor and report on the uptake of clean energy solutions across your metro area's economy. You'll see which industries and companies are outperforming others in becoming all-electric.
Our big goal is for metro area residents to get a good feel of how fast and how well their metropolis is energy-transitioning.
Keep up with your metro area's Great Energy Transition here.
When you, chief executive, see a local counterpart successfully transition their operations to all-electric, you might feel
a bit of envy. Or, a social nudge, to achieve your own energy ambitions.
Prioritizing your organization's clean energy transition isn't something you have to do. Its something you decide to do because you're fascinated by the concept and all the good it will do for your org.
For example, a big company in your town ditched its ridiculous diesel costs with its new fleet of electric delivery trucks. This is local proof for others in the delivery industry so they can confidently do the same.
We want to nudge everyone... you, your company, your industry and your whole metro economy towards a wonderful life energized not by burning things.. ss
Metro-scale progress on the Clean Energy Transition changes everything
