According to Zerohedge, “the zero-emission commercial-grade equipment landscapers will be far too expensive. These companies are going to have to completely retrofit their entire workshops to be able to handle this massive change in voltage so they’re going to be charged every day,” Bray said, according to a Los Angeles Times report Saturday. The change could strongly impact small businesses in landscaping and related industries. In addition to increased costs, the change could result in other unexpected problems, such as the need to carry charged batteries. “Bray said a three-person landscaping crew will need to carry 30 to 40 fully charged batteries to power its equipment during a full day’s work,” according to the report.”

Let’s bring some calm to this situation.
Philippians 4:7
"And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
We need peace. Peace that can only come from Scripture, from God.
We desperately need to be in God’s Word. I want to help with that.
For the last 11 years, Interpreting the Times has been helping people understand the headlines, the culture, & the world that we live in.
Interpreting the Times has tried to explain world events from a Biblical perspective by producing radio shows and now podcasts.
However, we will be changing some of the focus.
We will still broadcast podcasts but we are going to be more proactive in helping people learn Scripture.
Starting this month, Interpreting the Times will be producing short video lessons from the book of Revelation.
We will go chapter by chapter. Each video lesson will stand on its own but corporately, all 23 videos will complete an introduction and the entire book of Revelation.
To supplement the video teaching, there will be pages of notes for each chapter available in a free PDF download.
The book of Revelation should be complete before the end of the year.
Then we will do the same with the book of Daniel, Zechariah, and continue on from there.
Time is short.
The world is in chaos.
We desperately need to be in God’s Word.
Interpreting the Times will be helping you.
Maranatha!
