Newsflash....those who wish to stand in the way of everything no longer support hydro as "renewable"...
I'm not sure I understand??? How is hydro not renewable? Are you talking about extreme tree huggers saying the dam is bad for the river but they sure do enjoy having some of the lowest kWh rates in the country??
Btw, I didn't have a problem when the Trojan nuclear plant was around. It was both sad (it was a fixture in the area for many years and you could see it from the I-5) and cool watching that thing get decommissioned and when they floated the core thing up the Columbia to Hanford. Public sentiment killed it...
