Portland is much cooler than wherever you live

Sure, some greens have taken their homes "off the grid" -- but how about a whole urban district (https://www.metropolismag.com/cda/story.php?artid=1510)? That's the aspiration for Lloyd Crossing (https://www.pdc.us/pubs/inv_detail.asp?id=332&ty=17), a 35-block section of Portland, Ore., that seeks (https://www.aiatopten.org/hpb/overview.cfm?ProjectID=467) to generate most of its own power, collect most of its own water, and mitigate most of its CO2 emissions by 2050.
