S2 Ep20: Maxed Out Solar

Season 2, Ep. 20

On this episode of the podcast I interview Maxwell Neely of Maxed Out Solar. Following over a decade of community organizing Maxwell started Maxed Out Solar during the Covid-19 global pandemic. He envisions solar energy as an affordable way to provide American homeowners with energy cost relief as well as raising money for the climate movement and extinction rebellion. Maxwell's goal is to help people lower their living expenses. Maxwell lives in Washington DC and provide home solar panel installation consulting in over 20 states plus Puerto Rico. On the show we discuss the politics of the climate crisis as well as overcoming obstacles in life like being deaf. Thanks to Drowning Dog and Malatesta for the show music. 26 February 2024 - MC
