Two environmental groups spent $20 million to make lands and waters close to Southern Alaska’s Bristol Bay off-limits to economic development, a move that will hinder the construction of a mine that produces minerals that are needed to expand renewable energy production.

Pebble Mine sits on top of 80.6 billion pounds of copper and 5.6 billion pounds of molybdenum, highly conductive metals which are crucial to producing solar panels, wind turbines and geothermal energy facilities.

“The Pebble Mine is the wrong mine in the wrong place – up high in the watershed that supports the greatest wild salmon stronghold in the world,” Conservation Fund President Larry Seltzer said in a statement provided to the Daily Caller News Foundation.

There will never be a Green Economy. They're just trying to sucker us into giving up coal, nuclear, and natural gas, and then will lock everything down from being developed to replace it.

The so-called Green Economy is smoke for the Great Reset, which in itself is code for A Whole Lot Less People Who Are Not Wealthy Elite.

I love watching duelning environment interests battle each other.

I am on the side of the fishery.

Why should Bristol Bay be harmed so rich Californians and Mass-holes can feel smug about their efforts to make the world a better place for themselves?

A healthy fishery offers many measurable economic and environmental benefits to many people.

Wind turbines and solar panels do not offer measurable net-positive economic and environmental benefits to anybody.
