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.

Looks like communism! is the new mantra of the GOP. It’s coming from the least intelligent of their leaders to the least intelligent of their followers.
Could work!

Dr. Brian Cox
As previously mentioned, it’s good to see the rising popularity of astrophysicist Dr. Brian Cox.
In this video, he explains that life on Earth is about 4 billion years old, but for the first 3 billion, there was nothing more complicated than single celled organisms. He suggests that this may be the reason that civilizations are rare in the universe, i.e., that they’re only around for the blink of an eye in terms of geologic time.
To me, it also makes one wonder why it took God 3 billion years to create the first multicelled form of life.
