Ameresco and the City of Somersworth, N.H. have broken ground on a PV installation at the Somersworth Landfill. 

The 2,577 kW project is expected to generate 3,523,443 kWh in its first year. 

Energy produced by the project is set to be sold to the city under the state’s group net metering program. The project will pay the city a lease and a payment in lieu of taxes.

We’re proud to partner with the City of Somersworth on this innovative landfill solar project,” says Jon Mancini, senior vice president of Ameresco.

“This initiative demonstrates the potential of repurposing land for renewable energy and enhancing landfills to become more sustainable. We’re excited to begin construction and contribute to the city’s bright clean energy future.”

The project has received the necessary permits and approvals from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, with construction expected to begin later this month.

Minnesota is home to intelligent, well-educated people whose approval of Trump is lower than that of toenail fungus.

If Lindell wants to lead a state, he needs to choose one at least 800 miles away. Oklahoma?

He may also want to consider that Trump is easily the most detested person in this nation.

The Existence of God

I wouldn’t say that the burden of proof lies on religion.  No one knows how the universe got here.

The Big Bang was an event in which there was no chaos, no “entropy,” as we say in thermodynamics.  How did all this orderliness get there 13.87 billion years ago? No one knows. This is an issue in cosmology which is quite likely to outlast human civilization on this planet.

I’m an atheist for a few reasons, one of which is that saying that God created the universe doesn’t get us any closer to an understanding of the cosmos, if only because it raises the question: Who made God?

More to the point, there are hundreds of moral reasons to disbelieve in God.  Each year, 9 million children will die unbaptized on this planet before their fifth birthdays.  In the bible, we learn that God punishes them all with an eternity of torture in hell.  To what sort of weirdo does this make sense?

Some of us believe anything we want to.
