Samsung beds Ontario with 600 meg massive green energy push

Samsung and the Government of Ontario sign historic green power development deal

Green energy development in Ontario Canada in the twenty-teenies looks like it will be spearheaded by Samsung and everyone else is now playing catch up.

Independent clean power developers across Ontario were stunned at the magnitude of the deal, and the fact that it gives Samsung preferential treatment in advance of normal processes. The estimated 500 megawatts of wind and 100 megawatts of solar allotted to Samsung were good news overall, but two aspects of the plan raised particular concerns:

A) Ontario's feed-in tariff plan only allows for 500 megawatts of photovoltaic solar energy, and a full 20% is planned for the Samsung deal. A possible solution would be to expand the allotment for PV solar energy production to 550 megawatts.

B) Asking the Ontario Power Authority to set aside 260 megawatts of transmission capacity in Haldimand County and 240 megawatts in Essex County and Chatham / Kent, to essentially guarantee access to market for Samsung's.

Punk Rock To Align with Ecology Groups against toxic fuels

Having been there when punk rocked against racism and nuclear weaponry (late 70s, early 80s), it is clear to me that punk rock in the twenty-teenies and twenty-twenties will be about survival, and the fight against coal, oil and nuclear. Ya think I'm overstating the case? You probably also think that Bush's work for his Texan and Saudi backers had nothing to do with$140 oil and the near collapse of the global economy...

Anyways, I am inviting everyone with news of any environmental or social protests to post it here, especially if there is a connection to punk rock or other activist music (thinking Reggae, ska, folk, hardcore, world+++).
