Calif Labor Board as decided that ‘goat herders’ are basically working 24 hours a day-—7 days a week.
They are demanding that such herders get paid straight time-—Overtime-—& double time, ETC ETC.
Calculates out to about $14,000 a MONTH in PAY for a goat herder.
At those demands-—do NOT look for cities or villages to hire goats for cleaning up hilly areas & helping prevent wildfires.
THIS is AFTER NEWSOM’s ruling last year that no more gas chain saws can be used. Betcha hiring forest firefighters will be pretty tough into the future.
Two square miles== 1280 acres.
And the soil under the solar panels is unfit for any other purpose - nothing can grow there - may as well pave it over.
There is a 35 megawatt solar farm near Shelbyville TN.
Here is a link for a closeup of it (hopefully it works): https://www.google.com/maps/search/solar+farm+shelbyville+TN/@35.0526867,-86.3534047,38m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu
It is 375 acres and is used for Vanderbilt University: https://www.t-g.com/stories/solar-farm-willimpact-county,63675
Can anyone tell me what this strange building is? The exact same structure is here and there throughout the Shelbyville TN solar farm. It looks way too small to be a battery storage building.
“Can anyone tell me what this strange building is? “
It’s hard to say. The photos and google maps do not really allow you to get a good close up. Maybe it simply stores tools and replacement pieces such as bolts, screws, etc.
“I’m all for making the greens pay for damages, but $135,000,000? How much was the Harris’s property worth before the damage occurred? “
The Harris’ property and that surrounding it, including the aquatic life in their pond, is probably damaged for their life time and probably their children’s as well. The harm caused can not be easily rectified. Not to mention the harm to their enjoyment of their property. The majority of the award was punitive. That is meant to punish the defendant’s behavior so they will not repeat that behavior in the future and such an award has no bearing on the monetary value of the land itself. Punitive damages are MEANT to hurt.
Punitive damages are MEANT to hurt.
Nothing says green energy like 'nuking' the solar farm soil so that nothing can grow between the panels. Can't have that nasty 'greenery' standing in the way of a few watts of electricity.

Where’s the EPA on tis violation? AWOL again.
Like all agencies run by this supposed transparent administration they’re no were to be seen.
Fact is they’re to busy going after individuals rater than big polluters.
I had not thought of something like this happening, but it did. Now that adds another reason not to have “renewable energy”. Renewable energy should be used only for EV charging stations. Essential use of electricity (not EVs) should never be supplied by renewables/green energy. It’s not reliable enough.
Aren’t the wind generators getting a pass on protected birds they kill? Don’t know; just asking.
They did that to an area 10 times the size of Manhattan to build a solar power plant in the Mojave desert. No French nuclear power plant has ever destroyed an area 10 times the size of Manhattan.
Sure are
