Protect the right to manage energy usage without discrimination!
February 8, 2019

In a state with so much sun, rooftop solar should be a no brainer. But the Kansas Corporation Commission killed the rooftop solar industry by changing electricity rates for solar homeowners. Good solar jobs are disappearing overnight, along with homeowners chance to save on their energy bills.

The good news is that Kansas lawmakers will be considering a bill to grow the rooftop solar industry. 


SB 124 and HB 2190; the Energy Fairness Act protects Kansans and their right to manage their energy usage in order to lower bills without penalty or discrimination. The Act allows no extra charges for investor owned utility customers who generator their own power.

Wind Energy: A Wildlife Biologist’s Take

As a wildlife biologist, I think that the impacts of commercial-scale land-based wind farms on wildlife have been significantly reduced, and that guidelines and regulatory measures are in place to reduce these impacts further. I am also convinced that climate change impacts wildlife much more than well-regulated wind farms.

In the face of the climate crisis, both the sun and wind are sources of new blessing. By harvesting solar energy from the sun in solar panels and harnessing the power of the wind with wind turbines, both sun and wind have become tremendous sources of clean and sustainable energy.
