The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has published the final Environmental Impact Statement for the proposed Libra Solar Project in Mineral and Lyon counties, Nev.
Under the proposal, Libra Solar, a subsidiary of Arevia Power, would construct, operate and maintain a 700 MW solar facility, 700 MW BESS and 24-mile-long generation tie-line under a 30-year BLM right-of-way grant.
The project would be located on approximately 5,141 acres of public lands in Mineral County, and the tie-line would connect to the Fort Churchill substation in Lyon County.
“BLM manages vast stretches of public lands that have the potential to make significant contributions to the nation’s renewable energy portfolio,” says Kim Dow, BLM’s Carson City district manager. “To promote the development of these energy sources, BLM provides sites for environmentally sound development of renewable energy on public lands.”
BLM has permitted 25 GW of clean energy projects, including solar, wind, geothermal and gen-ties.

Did Fox News Take Us Down?
I’m not sure that Fox News caused the decline of our nation, but it certainly makes some level of sense.
When I was young, there was no source of “news” that was based solely on the profit to be made by making Americans stupid and mean. In fact, news in most of the 20th Century really didn’t have any real commercial value, because it wasn’t used to sell drugs and useless crap to elderly, addle-minded white people 24 hours a day.
Thirty years later, we have people who are as addicted to this hate news as alcoholics need another shot of booze.

The Catholic Church Has Started to Get It
The civilized world is thrilled to see the Catholic church take on the mantle of environmentalism, especially since the religious right still quotes from the Book of Genesis: Only God can destroy the Earth to justify climate denialism.
