US halts solar energy projects over environment fears
This story is yet another example of how the only acceptable energy technology is the one that isn't being used.
As Glenn asks, "Nukes are out, coal is filthy, wind power destroys Ted Kennedy's view, and solar leads to "environment fears." Do they just want us all to freeze in the dark?"
If I recall correctly, the environmental laws of this country are designed to look only at the environmental impact of any given project, and the value of the project to the public is not permitted to be considered. Maybe it's time for our lawmakers, in their infinite wisdom, to revisit this issue.
