Counties are blocking wind and solar across the US::Local governments across the U.S. are blocking new clean energy plants. See the best locations for wind and solar power, and where it’s being stopped.
Would that be Republican controlled counties?
Democrats are better
We need more coal mines the children yearn for the mines
The mines have cute little canaries in them so they’ll get to play with little pets
Yo dawg. I heard you like your miners to be minors…
I’m not sure if it wasn’t clear, but THE PLANET IS DYING.
The planet itself will survive this easily, the inhabitants on the other hand…
Yep, this is what I tell people…the planet will recover just fine…but just after it’s killed pretty much everything off and started over.
Nah the planet will be just fine. Humans (and other living things) though will truly be fucked.
Some living things will make it through the extinction event and the next sentient species will fuck it all up again in a billion years or so.
As it was foretold
This has all happened before and it will all happen again.

Can’t the boomers are still around and they still remember when Jane Fonda was easy on the eyes. Plus you know you got the granola gluten free spiritual not religious types now who are convinced they can generate electricity from unicorn farts.
Maybe some of these things (at least rooftop solar, but maybe not wind turbines) ought to be guaranteed by right on a Federal basis, kind of like how the FTC prevents local governments from stopping people from putting up antennas.
The biggest barrier to consumer renewable energy is price (and it has gone down considerably already.) Big projects ensures more development, which can lead to even lower prices.
With the state of the US power grid, we need more big renewable projects everywhere. Better subsidies on home renewables to take stress off the grid. The sooner the better !
We are really fucking bad at this
I know what they mean, but the headline makes it sound like they’re building a big-ass dome across the US, to block out the sun and wind entirely.
Some of these guys believe the earth is literally under a dome already. They also seem to think that wind farms are a global conspiracy to turn them gay or something.
The Simpsons already did this bit.
I live in SE NC. Duke energy has incentives for solar and they are about to pay for the installation of my Tesla charger in my garage… It’s not all bad I guess…
Their interactive map says mostly the Midwest.
