Solar project to destroy thousands of Joshua trees in the Mojave Desert
https://ca.news.yahoo.com/solar-project-destroy-thousands-joshua-100000768.htmlIt’s crazy to me that a destructive photovoltaic solar project like this one is considered reasonable, but a new nuclear power plant within or adjacent to a city is beyond the pale.
Eh. There are legit forests as alien as it may seem. This is on my drive to work: https://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/10/ae/a1/0e/the-joshua-tree-forest.jpg
This is a random picture off Google, there are denser areas too. But, if you go a mile or two in any direction it is pretty desolate for another 50 miles. Just go anywhere other than the splotch of forest. Pretty simple.
Wow, TIL!
But yeah, the empty areas seem ripe for this.
That looks so strange
I’d love to see that in person
It’s on the drive to Grand Canyon West, if you ever plan on seeing that.
Time to add a pit stop on a vacation I’m planning for later this year
Thank you!
I’m pretty sure that picture was taken from the only access road to Grand Canyon West, so it’s not even a detour. You literally can’t miss it.
