Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: It usually takes me a really long time to get a solid thesis, but once I have that I can easily refer back to that and show continuity throughout my writing . . . Writing not just for a grade but to get real understanding, something to last longer than just this moment . . . sharing knowledge . . . Teacher's take away from the course not just the mechanics behind renewable energy but to better us as informed decision makers for the future.
