“We are on the cusp of a new era”
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Sunday made tackling climate change one of her key goals were she to enter the White House, pledging to have more than half a billion solar panels installed nationwide by the end of her first term in office.
Clinton also called for a major increase in other renewable-energy sources, saying she wants every U.S. home to be powered by clean energy within a decade, reports Reuters.
“I want more wind, more solar, more advanced biofuels, more energy efficiency,” she said at a weekend rally in Iowa. “And I’ve got to tell you, people who argue against this are just not paying attention.”
The two goals were unveiled in a video posted to Clinton’s campaign website Sunday, and are part of a comprehensive agenda on climate change that will be laid out over the next few months.

On the contrary. Progressive leftists are all for expanding nuclear power -- in Iran.
Until her Gulfstream Jet is powered by solar panels, STFU.
A real plan for inner city jobs.
Limbaugh calls Jane Fonda “one of the Four Horsemen of the Energy Apocalypse. Due to that stupid movie of hers.”
If she installs 500 million solar panels, then she won’t
have much time to do anything else.
Guess which stocks her “blind” trust are in?

“I want more wind, more solar, more advanced biofuels, more energy efficiency,” she said at a weekend rally in Iowa.
I think she has already got the "more wind" part covered with all her bloviating, lying and excruciatingly painful speeches..
Sweaters and grants.
“The lovely Ms. Clinton’s voice on the devastating effects of climate change.”
Yeah, like fingernails on a blackboard! I just wish she’d talk more so her poll numbers would continue to fall.
The Soviets did have safeguards, it’s just that the idiots at Chernobyl disconnected them for a ‘test’........................No one ever thought that would happen...................
500 million solar panels ...that might provide less than 5% of the nations electric needs on a very sunny day that shines on all of these panels at once, but 0% at night and just a fraction when weather conditions are not perfect. These solar panels, like windmills, must be backed up with fossil fuel plants to make up for those all too common times when sun or wind is not available. Another green energy folly.
“HILLARY certainly giving us more wind.”
Must be the aftereffects of those bean burritos she and Huma picked up at Chipolte!
maybe the Clinton foundation could pony up some $$ to jump start this.
3MI did have a radiation leak but as you pointed out, no increase in cancer, though there was in increase in thyroid cancer south of the island but this was non-conclusive. All-in-all, no great threat to the public ever came to fruition let alone the estimated 300+ deaths that the anti-nuke crowd bellowed.
“What about nuclear??”
You can tell if a global warming hysteric really believes all the BS they spout if they are pro-nuclear energy. Those that are against nuclear are lying frauds.
“The Soviets did have safeguards”
Don’t Soviet/Russian power plants lack one important safety feature - a giant concrete containment dome.
