Yes, no alternative medicine rhetoric, too.

Solar is used in SA, quite big but Hydroelectrics dominates the energy production, and not only in SA, in all Latin America except for Costa Rica.

As a native spanish speaker, also preserving the name of this. Izquierda Democrática is the best option.

We can include Partido, but I said Izquierda Democrática as the best option to preserve the original english inspiration of "Democratic Left".

We're actually entering a new generation of efficient commercial solar panels so attaching them to government buildings when possible and promoting their construction on residential, industrial and commercial property should go a long way to cutting our nations dependences on non-renewable sources of energy especially if we combine it with wind and hydro.

Type in your nation name as your username and #DemLeft as the channel.
