SDSU Students Question if Offshore Wind is Really Green

WATCH NOW: California Collegians SHATTER "Clean Energy" Misconceptions at San Diego State University What if a "green" energy project comes with environmental costs of its own? That was the question CFACT students Caleb Rothstein and Jack Krepps posed to their peers at San Diego State University during a recent round of street interviews focused on offshore wind energy. As students weighed the issue, Caleb and Jack raised concerns on the impacts on marine ecosystems and whale populations. For several participants, it was information they had not encountered before.

Nuclear Wins the California Energy Face-Off

CFACT Collegian Kaeli McIntyre brought a new kind of energy debate to Clovis Community College this semester, giving students a side-by-side look at nuclear, solar, and wind power. On February 26, Kaeli set up her “Clean Energy Face-Off” board on campus with several friends who helped draw students toward the display. The handmade board compared nuclear, solar, and wind across several key categories: whether each source is carbon emissions-free, works at night, has strong energy density, uses land efficiently, and provides reliable power around the clock. Nuclear checked off all five categories. California’s last nuclear plant still does heavy lifting. Diablo [...]
