Navajo Code Talkers are no longer needed, LOL!

Seriously, the plant is adjacent to Navajo land and like those that worked at the recently closed coal plant at Page Arizona, most workers are highly trained Native Americans and there are not many similar jobs available as coal plants are closing. Here in New Mexico there are two coal plants in the Four Corners area, one operated by Public Service Co. of NM and the other by a power company in AZ. Locals are hoping to save PNM’s plant by having new technology to capture carbon, but the enviros are having none of it - they want it gone and demolished to be replaced by more bird killing windmills. And our electric bills will skyrocket as wind and solar cannot replace generation by efficient fossil fuel plants, especially natural gas.

Just GRRR...

When I drive through the area, I wonder what jobs are available if not for the power plant and the mines?

It's Grants, NM. Not NYC ...

The Indians can go back to pretty much living off the land as they did in times past. Same with the farmers and ranchers. It is the White snowflake "professionals" that will freeze and starve to death because they do not know how to cope. And will end up in killing themselves in wholesale lots. But in reality as well as in nature, stupidity exacts a very high price.

But if it is, and I doubt if it is, to them, they will not be the only victims of the Democrat's and Environmentalist's Green Program. The large cities will contribute their share. Enjoy it while you can because hard times are coming.
