More and more, conservative voices are making the case that the U.S. can’t achieve energy dominance without solar power. Even the leading industry trade group is changing its strategy.Earlier this year, Politico reported that the American Clean Power Association launched the “American Energy First” campaign to engage Kellyanne Conway and conservative influencers like Katie Miller “to amplify the benefits of solar energy” and “note the harm that could result from reckless trade policy.” Meanwhile, conservative groups at the state and federal level are advocating for building out solar power in service of private property rights, economic development and national security.Episode Guests:Kelsey Brugger, Congressional policy reporter, Politico Skyler Zunk, Executive Director, Energy Right; Executive Director, America First Energy Lillian Floutsis, Indiana Senior Field Representative, Indiana Land and Liberty, Conservative Energy Network This episode also features a reported piece from David Condos of KUER.Episode Highlights:For show notes and related links, visit our episode page at climateone.org ---Join us for our induction cooking demonstration night on July 21, at 6 p.m. at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco.
