And then Florida is another example. It's a big solar state, so we're not just talking about wind. So you have a lot of red states that are producing renewables.

I mean, I'm so uncomfortable with uncertainty.

Yeah, exactly. If I had to guess, I would say we will see a slowdown in the growth of wind as an industry, but ultimately it's not going to go away. It's not going to stop. Projections suggest that by like 2050, out into the future, we are going to see a much larger percent of energy in this country around the world coming from renewables, coming from wind.

Because again, what really matters here, and this is such an important takeaway, wind energy is cheap, if not the cheapest source of new energy relative to all other sources. And because it's cheap, it's going to do pretty well. I mean, the only reason Iowa has become such a big wind state is that it was economically smart for the state.

Sean, it's in the name, micro. It's just that easy. No, yeah, basically it is really tiny bits of plastic. Technically speaking, we're talking about plastic pieces that are less than five millimeters long on their longest side.

So it's like half a centimeter, not necessarily invisible, but you can get much, much, much smaller and into another category called nanoplastics, which are less than one micrometer, which is a millionth of a meter or a thousandth of a millimeter. So they can get very, very, very small. Basically everywhere scientists look on this planet, in our bodies, in animal bodies, we find microplastics.

So they are truly, absolutely everywhere. And these are like plastic fibers, so like the fibers that make up your nylon or polyester jackets or t-shirts. They could be broken down pieces of water bottles that have been crushed on highways. They could be nurdles, which are like these little pellets that are used to make other things out of plastic.

They're like the virgin material used to make plastic. So they're like they're just all over the place.
