An unusual coalition fighting for solar in the Sunshine State

3/14/2015

0 Comments

 
This article from the Tampa Bay Times relates how an unusual coalition of groups is coming together to argue for a level playing field for solar energy.  

This makes the point that renewable energy is not a right-left issue.  It provides good business opportunities and good jobs.  The article described the coalition as follows:

"Floridians for Solar Choice, includes tea party and Christian Coalition conservatives as well as Libertarians; liberal environmentalists such as the Southern Alliance, the Sierra Club and Greenpeace; Physicians for Social Responsibility; and the Florida Retail Federation."
