Yamaha Motor Corporation plans to install solar arrays at the company’s Southeastern Headquarters in Kennesaw, Ga. and Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America (YMMC) in Newnan, Ga. this summer. The initiative supports Yamaha’s goal to reduce emissions produced as a direct result of business activities and achieve carbon neutrality within its manufacturing operations and facilities by 2035. Yamaha expects conclusion of the solar installations by the end of 2024.
Yamaha will work with VeloSolar in Atlanta, Ga., for the installation of the solar array panels. With more than a decade of experience designing, installing and maintaining commercial solar installations, VeloSolar is one of Georgia’s largest solar installation companies. The company’s extensive portfolio includes numerous other Georgia-based companies including COX Enterprises®.
“The installation of these solar panels represents a substantial step forward in Yamaha’s quest to substantially reduce carbon emissions,” says Mike Chrzanowski, president and CEO, Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA.
We anticipate the solar array in Kennesaw will supply about 60% of the facilities’ electricity needs. At the Newnan facility we anticipate avoiding roughly 13,600 tons of carbon dioxide over the life of the array. That’s equivalent to eliminating approximately 14,930,000 pounds of coal emissions. These panels are in addition to the already existing solar arrays at YMMC.”

Numerous political philosophers from Aristotle to Jefferson have written the words, or their equivalent, that we see at left. In fact, the first decent paper I wrote in my quest for a degree in the subject was on Aristotle’s position on “The circumstances under which it’s acceptable to discontinue of friendship.” Spoiler alert: It’s when a so-called “friend” has undergone a change in character.
FWIW, I don’t want to be a friend of anyone who has adopted the modern-day GOP position on white nationalism, the multi-tiered justice system, the abandonment of rule of law, the dumbing down of America, or trashing the environment for profit.
Let’s examine this.
Republicans lost ground in 99% of the roughly 2,200 counties where most votes had been counted.
Democrats hadn’t won Kansas, a state dominated by the “salt-of-the-Earth,” in nearly a century.
The election left a clear mandate: The end of governance by liars and criminals, restoration of rule of law, adherence to the U.S. Constitution, human rights, and acceptance of science in policymaking.
If this is losing, the vast majority of Americans will take it every day of the week.
