California is Considering a Mandate to Make the State’s Entire Grid Fossil Fuel Free
“Lawmakers in California will likely be voting on a revolutionary measure for the production of energy in the state. Senate Bill 100 boosts the 2030 goal from 50 percent to 60 percent clean energy generation and calls for a completely clean grid by 2045. The bill passed in California’s state Senate back in May and needs confirming votes from the lower legislative house before the bill will be sent to the desk of Gov. Jerry Brown for ratification…”

Nuts!
Ideas so good they have to be forced upon people.
Or not…

Senator Leland Yee’s gun running?
Prepare for Rolling Blackouts being regularly scheduled daily events.
If they do this they need to make sure they are not going to receive any power from outside the state. Let’s do everything we can to help California leave the United States.
Richardson The Farrier Eh…what does that have to do with anything at all in this thread, post or conversation?
Believeittwo Unlike other parts of the country where those are already a regular occurence, California has been preparing for that for years. greentechmedia.com – California Passes Huge Grid Energy Storage Mandate
You wanted examples of incompetence in California’s government. A California senator couldn’t even run guns with all the corrupt protection he had.
California can’t even do corruption well in a system that protects corruption.
Let that sink in.
Wasim Muklashy preparing for power shortages….and that’s one thing that they do well.
Believeittwo Oh…and it seems to be working almost too well… pri.org – California’s electrical grid can’t handle all the solar energy the state is producing
That’s alright, California only needs electricity when the sun’s shining
John OBrien They already don’t. As a matter of fact, they supply power to other states. They also supply Google, Facebook, Twitter, Uber, Airbnb, the highest number of Americans of any state, the country’s largest ports, most of the country’s agriculture, and, well, the world’s 6th largest economy to boot. So yeah, they’ll be just fine.
Richardson The Farrier Number one, no, I didn’t ask for examples of California’s incompetent government. I asked for examples of your statement that “Nothing California does ever pans out.” But nice try on twisting my words and skewing the conversation to your agenda. And number two, that’s seriously the best you’ve got? Wow.
Wasim Muklashy and you are so quick to anger that you attack me for comments I didn’t make.
I may accept your apology.
Richardson The Farrier You’re right, I completely agree – they prepare for power shortages very well. Which is why they rarely have them.
Richardson The Farrier How cute. You skew someone else’s comment (“Nothing California does ever pans out.”) to fit your own narrative (“You wanted examples of incompetence in California’s government”) and then you want an apology?
Apology withheld.

That Headline looks good at first glimpse. Understanding the limits intrinsic to Solar power generation discloses a saddening reality behind the bling filled hype.

Apologize, don’t apologise, I don’t care, you’re wrong and everyone can see you refuse to admit it.
Your character shines forth.
Believeittwo So then educate us.
Richardson The Farrier Ok

Just this past week Socal has had excessive heat related rolling black outs. They give advanced warning regularly on local channels. And these have been happening for past ten or fifteen years, at least.

Your quote below
“+Believeittwo So then educate us”
I did, now you want me to do your homework?
Actually you bear the markings of a Social Hack promoting an agenda.
Or perhaps your just randomly misinformed on these issues.
Believeittwo The irony here is that you’re pessimistically rejecting measures aimed at mitigating the very effects and causes of the conditions that create these rolling blackouts to begin with…climate change, and even in the face of that, only 16,000 people have been temporarily affected so far by these blackouts you speak of (https://goo.gl/dAsgBf), by all means a success in the face of the region’s HIGHEST demand ever (https://goo.gl/hCuYij). EVER. Furthermore, those blackouts you mention, well they were occurring in regions in which they have yet to employ the planned storage of renewable energies into the grid, projects that have just recently been greenlit and Elon Musk’s Tesla are currently installing. And even FURTHERMORE, yes, as a resident of Southern California for 40 years until just recently, I’m VERY much familiar with what you speak of, yet, have never been affected by them. Not once. And when you take into account how many used to happen in the past, and how many are happening now, again, in the HIGHEST demand ever, that’s progress, all of which mitigated by advanced in storage and the grid being helped and eased by the amount of renewable energy being used instead. Homework is doing research and showing examples, so don’t give me that tired lazy line when all you’ve contributed to this entire conversation thread is your opinion with no facts or sources cited to back them up. So yeah…I sure as shit better bear the marking of a social hack promoting an agenda…as do you. But being as this is my collection, I’ll use it to promote mine. You want to promote yours, feel free to start a collection and have at it.

There isn’t any pessimistic rejection of a renewable energy farce.
Known scientific discovery of Alternative Energy systems have been available for over a century. Those methods and systems haven’t fit into the profitability projections of Energy Industry Corporations.
I don’t know why people are upset with California’s attempt to be fossil fuel free or reduce it usage. If it succeed, that means the demand for fossil fuel will be reduced and it price will drop. A good thing for consumers and many non-fossil fuel companies. The U.S. will be less depended on #OPEC. Another benefit.
The people that would be against this are the #oil, #coal, natural gas, pipeline, #drilling, refining companies’ CEO, #stock holders, and workers.

The problem is that California is considering a mandate to kill all power generation that uses any fuel that it doesn’t like. That’s the real problem.
Keoni Jlo Ignore Bob Moody if you still see the comment. His last comment was reported as hate speech and he’s been blocked.
Richardson The Farrier Yes. By 2045. 28 years should be awfully plenty of time to adjust accordingly. After all, we don’t really have much more margin for error on mitigating whatever effects of climate change we still can anymore. If we had started when the oil companies, yes, the OIL companies, first warned us 25 years ago, before covering it all up in the pursuit of pure profit and fuckery, we wouldn’t be having this conversation right now. wired.com – Watch Shell’s 1991 Video Warning of Catastrophic Climate Change
Wasim Muklashy
Are you claiming that the current use of energy producing fuels will kill all humans?
Richardson The Farrier I’m not claiming anything. Shell Oil and Exxon are (were). scientificamerican.com – Exxon Knew about Climate Change Almost 40 Years Ago
Wasim Muklashy
Which effects of climate changes are in need of mitigation, global cooling or global warming.
Both extremes have been claimed to be the catastrophic event having been activated by human industrial waste mismanagement.
Wasim Muklashy if you aren’t claiming these things then why are you bringing them up?
Richardson The Farrier Because this is my collection and I feel like it.
Wasim Muklashy oh, it’s all about muh feelz. That’s cool.
Ciao.
Richardson The Farrier Meh. Nice try. I’ve provided enough solid evidence and facts and links that you just choose to gloss over for your predetermined predictable agenda of baiting me into your little ‘feel snowflake libtard whatever blah blah’ trap. Carry on troll. Carry on…
