Will green investment be prioritised in the economic stimulus packages that are undoubtedly needed? Will people think differently about travel or food security? Will we emerge with a politics that focuses more on a collective approach to global challenges such as climate? Or will we fall back into desperate attempts to rekindle the old economy and the old ways? Rebecca Willis (UK), The Guardian, May 21, 2020The shallowness of climate concern among the public and voters is a large elephant in the climate room. A recent poll by the American Energy Alliance confirmed that U.S. voters are much more interested in pocketbook issues than in the ephemeral, politicized issue of climate change. The same is true when it comes to politics as Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) lamented earlier this year:There is no company that shows up in Congress on climate, except maybe Patagonia.

That’s more than 800 times as much land as the Kahe petroleum-fired power plant requires to generate the same amount of power. Using wind/solar projects to produce the same amount of electricity Oahu utilities produced in January 2020 would require almost one-third of Oahu be covered with solar panels, wind turbines, and battery storage systems.On Oahu’s west side, a Hawaiian green sea turtle snuggles up to a reef for an afternoon nap.

(Suzanne Albright, letter of May 31, 2020, below)One of the most carefully crafted [OPSB] stipulations [requires] the developer to curtail, or “feather” turbines at “night” for eight months of the year. The developer calls this a financial poison pill. (below) On May 21, 2020, the Ohio Power Siting Board (OPSB) unanimously granted a certificate of approval to LEEDCo/Icebreaker, a 6-turbine, 20.7 MW (3.45 MW per turbine) demonstration project eight miles offshore Cleveland.
