This week, when I read about California’s new Renewable Energy Acceleration Law (REAL) ballot initiative, the genius of its decentralized, grid-bypassing “solar family farm” approach

The Renewable Energy Acceleration Law of 2024 (REAL) would be the most impactful climate mitigation ballot initiative in history.
