Fighting 'Solar Farm' Installation

[Hay Dude]

Meh. Put the right people together and they'll figure out how hay production in the USA is killing children in Rhodesia.


You are not paying attention. I have repeatedly said fossil fuels are not subsidized. Once again creative accounting has been used to falsify a claim which agrees with the desired bias of those who keep repeating the claim which is all it takes to convince the gullible who vote for the candidate with the most signs lining the streets.

A recent post's URL (is it one you posted?) claiming "big oil subsidized $5.9T" if you actually read the claims only found 8% to be tax credits enumerated in legislation, and 92% was claimed "environmental damage."

The same geniouses who fabricated the "oil is subsidized" claim could do the same number on hay production. Are doing the same number on hay production and cattle methane emissions. Just not getting the same traction in the media. Not yet.

I drive a Tesla. And I say "oil is not subsidized".

Meh, mining cobalt & lithium are highly destructive processes to the earth. Concrete for windmill foundations is, too. I don’t think anyone doubts that. The visual impacts are gross, too.

You’d have to cover too much land with solar panels to be effective. We all know that.
Technology may break through and change that, but until then, they can put solar on their own roof, virtue signal to all the neighbors and quit forcing their fantasies on us.

I have 100 acres. How can I get this "taxpayer funding" to pay for my PV project?

Call a lawyer and figure it out. Sounds like money’s not an issue for ya with all those acres….
Do you own a Porsche, too?

Awww heck, we all fantasize about taking a stroll with the dog around a bunch of solar panels. Especially when you’re financially invested in them
Just admit it, it beats row crops or hay anytime!

Give in to the “new world”. Solar panels/windmills, transgenders, the deep state, and 32 trillion in debt.

China's Xi Jinping Thanks America

And all it took was a few mil

Still waiting for the unicorn & lollipops crowd to take to twitter and shame China for building a coal fired power plant every month or slave labor building our products

Why stop with farmlands? We can float solar on water too.

It's so beautiful.

HOW CHINA FLOATED TO THE TOP IN SOLAR

Right, but now tell me where the minerals for those batteries are coming from and how they’re procured….

That seems to be covered by the "assembled" bit

Art is in the eye of the beholder. But, walking around a solar "farm" is like walking around a corn field? Really? That's like saying walking through a downtown of a major city at night is like walking through the woods. Not equal.
The Elvis I was the caretaker for died about a decade ago, So he has not only left the building... He was a very specially trained dog that is still brought up by those that had met him. I no longer train the pups that way, they tend to scare folks who are already afraid of dogs and can't read them. Then he was a giant for the breed and that didn't help. The photo is a partial picture of him on one of my trips to the east coast.

I like symmetry, so looking at a solar farm with all the panels lined up is like art to me the city is actually looks quite messy and chaotic, nothing seems to be an order. Planted fields, military cemeteries, striped grass etc. etc. are all examples of symmetry,This is was why I use example of walking through a cornfield, no matter what row you're in everything looks lined up.

No offense meant with the Elvis post, I had an " Elvis" however he was called "Jay" for short. Made it to 16 1/2.

It may be easier to begin by attempting to work with the solar company to get some consolations. This is a common tactic used when unappealing construction is being planned. If they may offer an aethstetic buffer zone (something that could act to increase the value of the neighboring property) and/or free electricity for life then maybe it would make the impact more appealing.

Some people have got together in one of our communities and are planning on installing a huge multi-acre solar farm on property adjacent to my daughter's and sister-in-law's property. They will be surrounded to the north and south of their properties and across the road. Their property value will go to nearly nothing.

Has anybody fought the installation of one of these?

Any ideas?

We did, in Van Zandt County, Texas. We Lost.

They have taken over in eastern nc,in my rural area they have cleared thousands of acres within and around our community,we have wondered what they are planning,i would rather see solar farms instead of walmart,DG or low income apartment complexes bringing all the city filth and crime with it IMHO,At least solar panels dont steal from,shoot at,holler at and destroy or make noise and they pretty much insure that wont happen,on the other hand,im an avid hunter on my small 15 acres and since the logging within 5miles around our property i have seen the deer population dramatically reduce,from sitting in a stand from less than an hour to 4hrs+ with 0 results,so i guess its good and bad and from a an old country boys bank account not much fight against it
