The sun has negative impacts and positive ones as well.
As the need for alternatives to fossil fuels suddenly becomes an urgent matter- our political reps are finally taking notice of the natural energy source that has blistered our backsides for eons... the sun!
Solar power has finally come to mean something more than a passing phase. It has become a necessity. Our impact on the enviornment has caused enough damage, it is hard to tell if there will be any way to save it now. However, giant leaps will be made if solar power takes over.
There has been a lot of talk about the Flagstaff project. 
Partnering with APS, NAU and Flagstaff. the project plans to supply 200-300 homes and businesses with solar panals. This will create a renewable energy power-plant. The cost to homeowners and businesses is $0.00 (nothing). The panels and operating systems will be installed free of charge to participants. "Flagstaff Mayor Sara Presler also praised the project. “We were most excited to learn we were chosen for this project,” she said. “The message we’re sending today (about renewable energy) is exactly what the country is looking for.” (Inside NAU, Vol. 6, 2009)
One of the best parts of this endeavor in terms of Arizona economy is "that jobs will be created by APS’s partnerships with local businesses." That in itself is music to our ears! Thank you APS and Flagstaff for keeping Arizona alive!!
