The first three stories are about environmentalists protesting building wind/solar on land that it's important to indigenous groups or important habitats for endangered species (the second headline is also misleading, Thunberg herself wasn't involved with the Wyoming protest); in order to show that this means environmentalists were "not serious people" you would have to present an argument that there aren't equally good alternative places to build renewables that don't involve these problems, can you do that?
Here is a study from the Nature Conservancy suggesting otherwise, saying that "With careful and coordinated planning and robust community engagement, the U.S. can build the clean energy infrastructure needed for economy-wide, net-zero emissions by 2050 while avoiding most impacts to sensitive natural and working lands": https://www.nature.org/en-us/what-we-do/our-priorities/tackle-climate-change/climate-change-stories/power-of-place/ On Wed, May 17, 2023 at 7:32 AM John Clark <johnkcl...@gmail.com> wrote: > Greta Thunberg Arrested Twice While Protesting AGAINST Wind Turbines In > Europe > <https://stopthesethings.com/2023/03/08/believe-it-or-not-greta-thunberg-arrested-while-protesting-against-wind-turbines/> > > Greta Thunberg Protests Wind Farm In Wyoming > <https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/02/28/greta-thunberg-protests-wind-farm-wyoming-environmentalists-say-they-understand/> > > Solar Power Hits a Snag: Environmentalists > <https://www.wsj.com/articles/solar-powers-land-grab-hits-a-snag-environmentalists-11622816381> > > Burning Man Becomes Latest Adversary in Geothermal Feud > <https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/17/business/burning-man-geothermal-plant-nevada.html> > > And of course environmentalists will shout that you are the embodiment of > evil if you even mention the word "nuclear". > > John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis > <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> > 7tt > nsp > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Everything List" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to everything-list+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/everything-list/CAJPayv1h%3DZ8UpkmRmkFo9jQxzz5zPBwHkTiT14gReDNA4sTxLA%40mail.gmail.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/everything-list/CAJPayv1h%3DZ8UpkmRmkFo9jQxzz5zPBwHkTiT14gReDNA4sTxLA%40mail.gmail.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
