Laura Tingle on #ABC has slammed Trump’s actions in Venezuela as an “extraordinary breach of international law.”
Says if this is about oil, “well, actually, natural resources belong to the country where they come from.” 💥 #Venezuela

$0.60/W installed rooftop solar in a week or two!
Today on Volts: you've probably heard that Australia has cheap rooftop solar power. You've probably also heard some rumors & myths about it. (Is it destabilizing the grid?) I called my favorite Australian energy expert to clear it all up. This is a fun one!
