The survival of humans and the ecosystem at large depends on our transition to renewable energy.

Jessica Orsini

Sustainable power and a long-term subsidy to the folks owning the land? What's not to like?

Randy Wheeler

Any thing to lessen reliance on coal and gas is a good thing.

Will Mason

They are giant, noisy, bird murdering machines.

I have had 59 wind turbines built right across from our beautiful farm in Iowa. It was horrible. Causes migraines and cows just up and died with no explanation. Just think what it does to humans.

The Catholic Church swept pedophile priests under the rug for decades and facilitated human trafficking illegal immigration into this country. The pope and church deserve much criticism.

Zaos Gonzolez

Fred

And MAGA spends far too much time protecting Trumpism!

Michael Shaw

Disgraceful. Blasphemous. Politics has no place in religion. If a normal person went on such a disgusting tirade they would be fired from their job!

Harry D

No politics, like the way the last communist pope was so anti-American and supported the global warming religion more than Christianity?

RexAnn Dixon

Harry D

Randy Wheeler
