I see people up in arms about massive solar farm installations in Ohio. I'm not sure what the issues are as no one has ever quantified them other than to say "I moved here because of the fields" or "They are gobbling up good farm land for solar panels." You see signs everywhere: "Say NO to Solar!" As an Appalachian I recognize this as a miss. These people could have easily legislated (and still can!) a cut of the energy $$ to themselves. Instead they are trying to burn it all down and will be unsuccessful at it. Where is JD Vance or Mike DeWine on that one? Probably too busy ducking energy policy corruption charges.

- Aunche 3y agoThat's not really about an opposition to green energy though. It's your standard NIMBY excuses about ruining the view and whatnot.
