It is truly hard to understand how incredibly stupid extreme right wing politicians like Ron DeSantis get elected. On May 15, 2024, the current governor of Florida enthusiastically signed a piece of garbage legislation passed by the Florida legislature — which strives to bless every harebrained idea DeSantis dreams up — that allows the state government to ignore climate change when crafting energy policies.
Florida is also the state where the investor-owned utility companies conspired to slip a constitutional amendment by the voters that would have stripped residents of the right to put solar panels on their roofs. Fortunately, the voters saw through the ruse and told the utilities to take their dastardly plan and shove it.notes, Florida is one of the US states most vulnerable to the costly and deadly impacts of climate change, which is largely driven by the burning of oil, gas, and coal.
Last year, DeSantis refused to allow his administration to accept $346 million in federal funds to help Florida residents make their homes more energy efficient — despite a request from the State legislature to accept the money. Not going to have anything to do with federal money on his watch, especially if it might help low income Floridians. That’s what happens when you elect ideologues to important positions instead of people who actually want to help their constituents to thrive.
