Well we have to do something. The Miracle In Gay Paree doesn’t seem to be working. Phoenix is expecting “unseasonable” low temperatures this week and Flagstaff got enough snow that they had to close the schools.
you’re sharper than me.
goebels, i think i spelled it wrong :), would be proud.
How dumb does a solar panel get? Are they afraid of the Smart panels. Needs title rewrite.
They’re so dumb they should all be voted off the island before it flips upside-down.
The largest private solar farm in the United States is in Maiden, North Carolina. It was built by Apple to power their massive data center there.
That is not the stupidest thing that has ever been said in a hearing.
Congressman Hank Johnson (D-GA) allegedly expressed a fear during a hearing on March 25, 2010 that the island of Guam could capsize if too many military personnel were stationed there. The linked YouTube video shows the exchange with Admiral Robert Willard in which Rep. Johnson expressed his fear.

Don’t forget Sheila Jackson Lee (Communist-TX) who thought the Mars rovers could find the flags the astronauts planted in the 60s.
Well the Solar “Flux” at the Nevada Solar plant is sure bad for the birds there. They hit the ground on fire and pre cooked.
Search “Streamers”.
Haha. Wonder why the farticle didn’t mention that. The town is half Black itself.
Really a disgusting story though, I’m sure all kinds of idiots speak up at town meetings, there’s no indication anyone took them seriously. I can think of plenty of real reasons they might have not wanted the solar farm.
Smells like liberal fiction written to make people that believe in God, guns, and the Constitution look like idiots. That’s just how the lyin’ left works these days...

Actually in a weird way they may have a point. Solar panels absorb solar energy that may have otherwise been reflected back into space. When less energy is reflected into space than hits earth from the sun that is defined as global warming.
On 8 December 2015 the Roanoke-Chowan News-Herald published an article titled “Woodland rejects solar farm.” The article was later aggregated to news outlets with a far larger reach, such as The Independent’s 13 December 2015 piece “US town rejects solar panels amid fears they ‘suck up all the energy from the sun.’”
The original reported that three solar farms “had previously been accepted by the town council,” adding that a proposal to rezone part of the land north of town was subsequently rejected in the meeting:
The Woodland Town Council rejected a proposal to rezone a section of land north of town to M2 (manufacturing) from RA (residential/agricultural), essentially denying approval of a solar farm ... Later in the meeting, the Town Council voted for a complete moratorium on solar farms.
During the public comment period preceding the rezoning vote, citizens expressed distrust and fear of the solar panels.
Mary Hobbs has been living in Woodland for 50 years and said she has watched it slowly becoming a ghost town with no job opportunities for young people.
She said her home is surrounded by solar farms and is no longer worth its value because of those facilities.
She added that the only people profiting are the landowners who sell their land, the solar companies, and the electrical companies.
Notably, among concerns registered were those like Hobbs’; some residents simply worried that the burgeoning solar industry would further depress the local economy and tank the values of their homes (asserting that such damage had already been done.) Others expressed concerns unrelated to property value:
The next speakers were Bobby and Jane Mann.
Jane Mann said she is a local native and is concerned about the plants that make the community beautiful.
She is a retired Northampton science teacher and is concerned that photosynthesis, which depends upon sunlight, would not happen and would keep the plants from growing. She said she has observed areas near solar panels where the plants are brown and dead because they did not get enough sunlight.
She also questioned the high number of cancer deaths in the area, saying no one could tell her that solar panels didn’t cause cancer.
“I want to know what’s going to happen,†she said. “I want information. Enough is enough. I don’t see the profit for the town.
no no, it’s a village full of idiots- in fact, when a village somewhere loses their village idiot, they call this village for replacements

That’s what I am reading from these stories.
I hope Obama went to a Mosque in Guam, to practice his Muslim faith, after visiting all 58 states, before the island tipped over.
Probably said "Solar farms suck."
