Join Us in stopping this industrial-scale solar project

This is the 1,900 acres that has been proposed to be removed from our wildlife habitat, migration and agricultural farmland.

Help us stop this project! Industrial-scale solar belongs on rooftops, near highways, commercial, industrial-zoned land, marginal or contaminated areas, not on rural agricultural land.
