Pipelines companies don’t detect corrosion or stop explosions
A reminder of why to stop pipeline companies from burying investors’ money in the ground and get on with solar power:
the pipeline that exploded in Texas last week was
half owned by Spectra Energy,
the pipeline company behind
Sabal Trail, AIM, Penneast, and numerous other fracked methane invasions
and behind thirty years of undetected corrosion resulting in leaks, explosions, property damage, and deaths.
The pipeline company didn’t detect it and couldn’t even turn it off quickly.
Want to bet that it,
like Spectra’s Pennsylvania explosion last spring, was corrosion?
A very Texas report said “no people or cattle were injured” and also notice: “The fire is under control and will burn itself out.” Continue reading

They vote tonight at 5:30 PM, and yesterday morning they reviewed
the three rezonings back
the agenda
after being tabled
last month.
County Manager Joe Pritchard
said staff would be sending Commissioners

He didn’t say anything about showing that list to the public.
See also the LAKE videos of last November’s Planning Commission meeting for those three rezonings.
Below are links to LAKE videos from each item yesterday morning, with a few notes, followed by a video playlist. Continue reading

Even FPL is doing solar power now, as evidenced by these pictures
John Horton sent back from Daytona yesterday.
So, FPL, how about cancel Sabal Trail and help the sun rise faster on the Sunshine State?
