Fighting 'Solar Farm' Installation

[RB5]

This I can agree with. I do believe that increasing the global standard of living may help decrease population. This crisis we are in, regardless of how anyone thinks it is being caused, can be solved through innovation. Our species is good at that.

That is a good point. In many areas where the standard of living has increased I have read where the fertility rate has declined. One of the major problems I see is how the land has been degraded, and the aquifers are getting lower. They are not being recharged. Springs dry up. In Texas wells go dry, and they drill deeper. All of that decreases the ability of the land to replenish on it's own. We can do things to help, and some large acreage landowners have done things to restore their land. Look up some of the conservation awards. These things are what needs to be done.

Much of NY and other cities are built on top of what was garbage and landfill, before practices changed. Are sea levels rising, sure have ever since we came out of the last ice age. Will they drop again? if we go into an ice age sure.

How much history was erased when the sea levels rose 400 feet? What will it take to have another near extinction event? It will happen.......it has several times before.

Land does sink, look at Venice when the sucked up the water table to feed mainland industry.
Some land rises.
Manhattan is 90% built on bedrock except for lower west side and some smaller areas on east side to shore up flooding.
The original fill for the build on the west side was from digging the WTC foundations.

Land in Brooklyn and Staten Island was built on garbage dumps. But not large areas.

Thread creep
Just don't bring up pallets.

These pallets decided to make a fort. By strapping it to my 800# tire and using my pallet Jack I was able to remove the tire myself.
Don’t know how this will stop a solar farm, but it will contribute to landscape changing, as I got my tire disc changed.

Solar, pallets, tractors, back on track.

Great job buckeyeframer. And I was just talking bout innovation lol

The problem is this has become political. Instead of actually doing something they play games with us. In the end those that try to work and pay the bills will be the ones that get screwed by these unsustainable policies. I am not one of those that wants to live in a high rise apartment stacked on top of each other with no car, walking to the store or work every day. I suspect most of you on here would not like that either. At some point our freedoms may eventually go away because what we are doing is not sustainable.

Good analysis...... and the games they play are about shoving climate change down our throats as a diversion to the real issues that have compounded themselves into self destruction. The US is on the verge of collapse, The climate change hysteria is a huge chunk of ill advised policies responsible for most of our issues in the United States today. You blow up our economy for a political stance using climate change as the weapon of choice, then compound it with printing worthless money and spending money we don't have. I would think that climate change doesn't make the top 20 in a tractor forum. Yet some seem to think we need to be lectured on a politically skewered "science consensus" that could be the # 1 source leading to the recent rapid decline of our country.
So someone said in here that there are better options than wind and solar. Yes there is and anyone who has a responsible approach would never let these industries be the flagship of our energy sources. Most people with a little common sense and reason have figured out the angles of discussions in here. Easy to pick out grandstanding on a particular topic vs legitimate concerns. The (in our face) issues today that could lead to a death of a nation, millennia(s) before climate ever does.......
