Interesting that we’re seeing wider implementation of renewable technology out in rural areas, like as with all those giant wind turbine farms you can sometimes see. Seems to make more sense out there I guess, they’ve got plenty of wide-open land available for use, it’s just interesting from a political party perspective. Rural areas seem to lean more Conservative/Republican and have thus either outright denied climate change was a thing in the first place, or dragged their feet in wanting to implement “green” energy. When the “Green New Deal” was proposed it was demonized on the Right. Yet rural areas themselves may be one of the major areas that’s actually benefits from renewable energy technology. The cities will be using most of the energy, but the countryside is where a lot of that energy may be produced.
