Addiction is a chronic brain disorder characterized by compulsive drug use despite negative consequences. The emotional impact of addiction often leads to increased stress, depression, guilt, and emotional numbness. Individuals may experience overwhelming feelings of shame and hpelessness as they struggle to control their substance use despite the consequences. Addiction is not a sign of weakness, a character flaw, or a moral failure.

From pv magazine GlobalOn January 18, 2025, I was fortunate, thanks to a non-profit Empowered by Light and a retired fire captain, Richard Birt, to help deliver portable solar-battery systems, to firefighters near the front line of the Malibu fire. The firefighters were very appreciative, because their only source of electricity was their fire truck, and drawing too much power from the truck for charging chain-saw batteries and communication equipment could prevent the truck from functioning.
