Who Wants Wind and Solar in Their Communities?, with Sarah Mills

In this week’s episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Sarah Mills, a researcher at the University of Michigan, about rural communities in the Great Lakes region and their perspectives on local renewable energy projects. Mills and Raimi discuss how rural communities tend to receive and perceive renewables projects, why large-scale projects often face opposition, and the extent to which outside interests may be fostering local opposition.
