Florida hurt itself in confusion.
Florida has no PP left!
Florida forgets ban plant based meat and learns ban wind turbines.
Names checks out
It’s not like climate change will affect Florida at all. /s
The measure signed by DeSantis would also launch a study of small nuclear reactor technology, expand the use of vehicles powered by hydrogen and enhance electric grid security, according to the governor’s office.
Got some whiplash at the end there after reading some of the most dumbass policies that’ve ever been written.
“We’re launching a study” is a classic cop-out. We’ve been “studying” hydrogen power for the last 30 years, with virtually no commercial applications.
Our development of nuclear energy in the US has completely stalled out, with the most recent project - the Georgia Vogtle 3 and 4 reactors - completing at 3x their original expected budget and eight years late. Along the way, the main designer of the plant - Westinghouse - straight up went bankrupt due to mismanagement and delays.
Wind power is crazy cheap and easy to deploy, by comparison. It takes less than two years for a wind turbine to turn a profit and new units can be deployed for millions - rather than billions - of dollars. We have thousands of turbines already in use and we’re prepared to run out tens of thousands more by the end of the decade.
This isn’t a good policy. Its do-nothing busy work for bureaucrats invested in the state’s legacy coal infrastructure.
It’s okay, Floridian onshore wind farms will soon be offshore wind farms in a couple of years
Isn’t on of the things on the first page of their book a command to be good and responsible stewards for their environment?
Man we really aren’t going to make it are we? Like it’s not bad enough that big oil has been fucking progress to a greener future for the past 50+ years, right? When shit starts to get REALLY bad is when the US decides to go through some sort of fucking idiot renaissance where ignorance is winning most battles and we have fucking morons just punching more holes in the already sinking ship.
Free Market!
