Where I am now, I am happy to see Solar Energy businesses starting up, trucks going around the area to install Solar Panels, people doing it on their own.
In fact we can now buy a 'do it yourself' system at Home Depot.
What you just posted is the problem. I would think it is not something to use as an example of why we should just accept yet another Environmental disaster.
As an environmentalist and Democrat I would eg, be posting that to say 'we have to change this'.
And we do.
I am happy to see the changes happening faster than I thought in my own neighborhood. We are meeting with the local Solar Energy Co. in a few weeks to see how fast we can move away from the Old, destructive energy dependence that has caused so much harm to this planet. We have our own well, and several people around here now have returned to the old Windmills to generate energy, NOT the huge commercial windmills, the old individual kind. Very exciting.
Young people especially are involved in changing their sources of energy.
