In EcoNet News, V26 #12, 12/30/2024, Ted reminisces on the past 40 years of publishing his monthly newsletter. In his farewell Net Positive, he shares and encourages his optimism in regards to the future, and his clear perspective on society – as a collective intelligence and vision – having all the solutions needed to address current environmental issues. He thanks all of the EcoNet readers for their support through the years.

He goes on to highlight zinc-ion batteries, floatovoltaics braving through extreme weather conditions, EV charging networks deployed across the country, Wisconsin Public Service Commission approving the 1.3 GW Vista Sands Solar Farm, PG&E’s $15 billion federal loan guarantee to expand clean energy, the Montana Supreme Court ruling in favor of youth, Africa’s renewable electricity highway, and lithium battery record price drop.
