I’m opposed to New York going green. I feel it’s going to be too expensive and unreliable for our State. We are fortunate to have hydroelectric power from Niagara Falls. Natural Gas is plentiful from PA and could be a boom to New York’s economy if fracking were allowed in the southern parts of the state. The climate of New York isn’t condusive to solar since we have so few days of bright sunshine. It’s a waste of good farmland since it has a large footprint and the soil underneath it would be useless for decades. the solar panels are made of hazard waste and are hard to get rid of. the windmills destroy the view of our mountains and lakes. Other places have gone green and found them not as efficient or reliable and in the case of Germany they are returning to fossil fuels. they have found the energy more expensive. We aren’t ready to be totally green.

I am vehemently opposed to NYS going green. We hav e natural gas, hydro and oil is plentiful and inexpensive. NY climate isn’t conducive to solar. We get excited when we have a day of sunshine. Many more cloudy days than sunny. The solar panels are hard to dispose of because they are carcinogens and they have a large footprint that takes away from our valuable farmland and our view of mountains and lakes. It makes no sense. Other countries have gone green and are no going. back to fossil fuel.
