I think the government should make renewable energy affordable for everyone by subsidizing the upfront costs of solar panels and wind turbines for low-income families. This is needed because right now it's only the wealthy who can afford to go green, while people like my mum who live on a council estate are stuck paying high bills for dirty energy. It's not fair that people who are already struggling have to choose between heating their homes and paying for food.
I've seen it with the families I work with, they're barely getting by and the last thing they can afford is to invest in solar panels, no matter how much it would save them in the long run. That's why the government should step in and help out, it's not like it's going to break the bank or anything. They just need to prioritize it and make it happen, instead of just talking about it like they always do.
