“Gov. Jerry Brown said this morning that his administration will "crush" efforts to block renewable energy projects in California, intervening in local disputes to overcome opposition. Brown said his office will "act to overcome the opposition," helping projects overcome permitting and environmental challenges. The Democratic governor announced Friday that he had filed a legal brief urging a federal judge to deny litigation seeking to block a solar energy project in the Mojave Desert.”

He is willing to dispense with democracy and environmental protections. Beware of renewable energy companies and corporations. For one thing, Oil companies are buying them up, and another, green washing is rampant with multitudinous environmental pollutants, hazards, and disturbances being created. I am opposed to 2 questionably approved projects in the Carrizo Plains in Central California (San Luis Obispo County), one of which is adjacent to my land.
Here is another article in the Huffington Post that says he better pack a lunch…”The global backlash against the energy sprawl that comes with renewable energy projects is growing and it is fierce. Brown's comments, made during a speech at the University of California, Los Angeles, were aimed at citizens who oppose a large solar project in San Luis Obispo.” Yep, that’s me.
