The Weekend Wonk: Climbing Solo for Solar

Bear with me.

I was completely freaked out by the trailer for a new documentary on Alex Honnold, apparently the world’s best free climber, and his ascent of El Capitan in Yosemite park.
Nat Geo presentation will be out soon.

Seriously, if you get vertigo, be careful watching trailer above.

Turns out Honnold also has a foundation supporting installation of solar energy in the developing world. Great story.

Below, Vice News production team followed Honnold solo-ing for solar in Angola.
