Legislation could be introduced in the upcoming 2025 legislative session that would provide that third-party companies could offer "community solar" to Georgia Power customers. A study committee that I established near the end of last session, and chaired by Chairwoman Beth Camp is continuing to study the issue. Information and brief explanation of the issue can be read here. Read a fact sheet on climate change, researched and written by Emily Anderson, former staff member on the Energy, Uilities & Telecommunication Committee, here. Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are emerging as a promising technology within the nuclear energy sector, designed to provide a safer, more flexible, and scalable alternative to traditional large-scale nuclear reactors. The development and deploy-ment of SMRs have gained significant momentum in recent years due to the need for cleaner energy sources, grid stability, and energy security. Read more here. |
A few years ago, I found a book,
Climate and Man, published in 1941
by the United States Government. It is a huge book with an
in-credible amount of information related to weather, especially as
weather affects agriculture. I was immediately curious as whether,
perhaps, the book contained any information from a 1941 per spective
on climate change. I suspected that it did not. However, I was very
pleasantly surprised that it contains an entire sub-chapter on
climate change that I find very informative and enlightening. The
following are the major excerpts, quoted directly, from that
sub-chapter. As I continue my study of climate change, I find the
information, despite it being almost eighty years old, to be very
useful and beneficial in understanding this most important issue.

A tax credit allows for a certain percentage of money spent by an individual or organization towards specified items to be deducted from the amount of money that would otherwise be owed in taxes. We, in the fiscally responsible Republican majority in the Georgia legislature grant tax credits cautiously, and usually only to expand job opportunities. We have a balanced budget in Georgia. However, the Democrat controlled federal government has no requirement for a balanced budged; no far from it with a $35 trillion debt it has imposed upon us. The money we pay in taxes to the federal government goes toward the interest on that debt, not even touching the principal. Interest on the debt is the second highest line item in the federal budget. |
