Water woes from prolonged buyback talks tempts top grower to cash in and head to the coast

As someone who comes from these communities i can tell you 100% then is going to drive people out of farming. When the water buybacks happened in the past it drove a lot of farmers to the wall with just how little they could produce. They are already feeling like this could happen again.

  • Pretty most of the people i know who work in IT are all just using Defender now, i have even stopped paying for AV and just use defender out of the box.

  • Solar is now ‘cheapest electricity in history’, confirms IEA (International Energy Agency) (from 2020)
  • How can we shift our peak power use when no one is there to use it?. Again we did all the math even with the company and we all came to the same figure.

  • Solar is now ‘cheapest electricity in history’, confirms IEA (International Energy Agency) (from 2020)
  • Nope that's literally the only way you can make solar viable here. We get no credits or anything for the excess power we generate and we use hardly any power during the day.
