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.

Is Saudi Arabia Really Planting Million of Trees in the Desert to Fight Climate Change?

Published

When the leaders of Saudi Arabia aren’t dismembering journalists for their opposing points of view politically, they’re making trillions of dollars from selling oil. The idea that they’re at all concerned about the environment is ludicrous.

It would also be interesting to know how they plan to water these trees that they are (ostensibly) planting in the desert.

Examining the Concept of “Generational Wealth”

From the advertiser:
Did you know that direct investment in oil and gas not only delivers the potential for high cash flow but also offers some of the most significant tax advantages available to investors today?
Thanks to powerful deductions like 90% first-year write-off of Intangible Drilling Costs (IDCs) and ongoing depletion allowances, these opportunities can meaningfully reduce your taxable income in the year of investment and beyond.
Add to that the ability to receive monthly cash flow and enjoy direct ownership in American oil, and you’re looking at an asset class with the potential to build real, generational wealth.
Great news! Don’t miss out on this opportunity to be a part of the destruction of our Earth.
Seriously, who wants “generational wealth” on a planet that is losing its capacity to support life with each passing generation? Does anyone think that future generations are going to thank us for ruining our only home?
Yes, the Trump administration has made it easier to generate profits for the fossil fuel industry by eliminating the incentives for solar and wind, while opening up vast amounts of wilderness to oil and gas extraction.  Do you really want to be a part of this?

No Decent American Wants to Hear Our President Refer to the People of Other Countries as “Garbage”

I believe the subject matter of the video here will ultimately play a large contributing factor to bringing down Trump.  His referring to Somalis as “garbage” and his doubling down on it here is abhorrent to most Americans.

Yes, his racist MAGA base is cheering him on for his demonization of people from a poor country with black skin, but most Americans can see that this comes directly from the is the playbook of all fascist leaders.
