Ladies of Another View-10.06.2023

Today, as we navigate the complexities of the ever-evolving energy landscape, it's essential to remain objective and informed about the true impact of certain "green" initiatives. Often, well-intentioned projects that aim to address climate concerns end up creating additional environmental problems, both foreseen and unforeseen.

Join us as Lori Hinz highlights the ongoing efforts of Summit Carbon Solutions to gain approval for a CO2 pipeline in North Dakota. While this project aims to store CO2 underground, there are rising concerns about its potential environmental repercussions.

Simultaneously, Craig Ruckus from CFACT sheds light on the current administration's proposed changes to our national energy grid. The path forward is paved with good intentions, but the potential for unintended consequences is real. For example, offshore wind farms, promoted as eco-friendly energy sources, might be detrimental to marine life. Whales, among our planet's most majestic creatures, might find themselves in harm's way due to these structures. This raises the vital question: Can we truly champion marine conservation while also endorsing these wind farms?

The same concerns extend to other green energy sources. From the potential toxicity of solar panels to the unreliability of some alternatives, it's crucial to question and understand the full spectrum of implications.

Interestingly, this conversation has bridged the gap between traditionally divided groups. Both right and left-leaning organizations recognize the necessity of reevaluating these green energy plans, showcasing a rare and welcomed unity in addressing our nation's challenges.

Lastly, Sage Steele from ESPN revisits the 2021 interview with President Biden, providing further context and insights into the energy discourse.

<h2>TAKEAWAYS</h2>

- Promoting offshore wind farms might conflict with the goal of saving marine life, especially whales.

- Concerns over green energy initiatives are uniting groups from both ends of the political spectrum.

- Summit Carbon Solutions remains steadfast in its objective to store CO2 underground in North Dakota, but concerns linger.
