Energy Transition

[60swerethebest]

We’ve concreted both banks of the Miss River with the most fertile farm land in Louisiana. It’s provided jobs that put me through school but we’ve paid a price for it. In the B late forties and early 50s the river road was a sea of green. Now mostly stacks and runoff. And jobs.
At least solar farms don’t add to flooding.

I’m all good with solar farms in places like New Mexico, Arizona and West TX. I can’t fathom government contributing dollars for solar farms to take over prime food crop growing acreage like in St Landry and Acadia Parish, amongst others. WTF are we doing?

I know that land use has been made an issue but in reality is a none issue. There are a lot more legitimate concerns in front of that. I have zero issue with solar and my background is oil & gas. I believe it makes a lot of sense in the right scenario. Just need to put everything out there for proper evaluation and implementation.

This is a manufacturing plant not a solar farm.

…….I think all land should be confiscated…….WELL LAND OWNED BY THE CHINESE AND OTHER ADVERSARIES …….SECURITY…..ALSO DONT ALLOW BALLOONS TO FLOAT OVER OUR LAND!

Where is the Blanco center? Is it named after the Governor like many buildings on campus or the ex VP of student affairs?

[BeauCajun]

It’s in Dupre Library. The former governor.

I understand that.

I’m just giving out my frustration with seeing solar farms currently taking over sweet potato and rice fields. Can’t blame the landowner for agreeing to the lease if it pays him/her/them much more than crop production, but I don’t have to like it.

The "transition" means something radically different than anyone can imagine.

Maybe use some of the acreage now devoted to sugarcane. It would increase solar production while decreasing the amount we subsidize sugar.

Do you smell toast? Numbness on one side?
