A federal judge on Monday struck down President Donald Trump’s executive order blocking wind energy projects, saying the effort to halt virtually all leasing of wind farms on federal lands and waters was “arbitrary and capricious” and violates U.S. law.

Judge Patti Saris of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts vacated Trump’s Jan. 20 executive order blocking wind energy projects and declared it unlawful.

Saris ruled in favor of a coalition of state attorneys general from 17 states and Washington, D.C., led by New York Attorney General Letitia James, that challenged Trump’s Day One order that paused leasing and permitting for wind energy projects.

Sadly his pet SC(r)OTUS judges will be along to over rule that.

This will fail on appeal. The "arbitrary and capricious" is that the federal government has to back wind and solar projects.

Wind is better than solar but that's like saying catching syphilis is better than catching AIDS.

It's proof Trump is seeking to weaken our nation in the face of our enemies. Russia and, especially China, will surge ahead with renewable energy sources.

Meanwhile, all of his MAGAt cracker retards are high-fiving each other like it was a Super Bowl win.
 
Solar and wind are the energies of the future. Toss in nuke, and you can kiss dirty oil goodbye. You're a Trumpy so we do not expect much from you. https://www.climatecouncil.org.au/11-countries-leading-the-charge-on-renewable-energy/
No, solar and wind aren't. They're fails and even the Progressive Left environmental front is recognizing it. Two countries on your article's list aren't even making serious use of either: Iceland and Norway. Iceland is using geothermal, something they have in abundance being on the mid-Atlantic ridge and spreading center. Norway uses hydroelectric due entirely to their unique geography. Germany and the UK, on the other hand, have both discovered the disaster that wind and solar are.





The UK is no better:




The same is true EVERYWHERE solar and wind have been widely adopted. They are unreliable, costs of electricity skyrocket, and the average consumer gets screwed.

No one elected the judge to be President.
