The North Carolina town that's scared of solar panels, revisited
- natch 11y agoI wish Google had a feature where Google Maps would prioritize imagery updates for areas that are in the news. Obviously I mean in cases where that imagery would add insight to the ongoing story, such as in this case. Out of curiosity I looked at the satellite view for that town (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Woodland,+NC/@36.3222801,-77.2109828,15784m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x89ae34b8d043532f:0x89fedc52aca1aed2!6m1!1e1?hl=en-US https://www.google.com/maps/place/Woodland,+NC/@36.3222801,-...) and didn't see it being walled in by anything, certainly not solar farms. It's possible the entire area is now wiped clean and transformed into solar farms, but the imagery is too old to see any of it.
