One ~182km x ~211km solar thermal plant could provide all of Americaβs electricity, including a fully-electrified land transport sector.
100% clean power from just 0.39% of U.S land.

A 1-year-old girl was pepper-sprayed through the window of a moving vehicle by ICE agents in Chicago. She was briefly hospitalized.
The dad said a masked agent pointed pepper-spray at a Sam's parking lot when they were hit.
