Well, as a goal, the U.S.

has walked back from that and we no longer have that as a goal.

That said, wind and solar are just so cheap to build and quick to build that we're already up to 17 percent of U.S.

electricity coming from wind and solar power at this point.

So that while it's slowing, that number continues to increase.

And

That's not going to happen.

But it does continue to increase because it just makes sense in a lot of places.

So we went there, and it's a wonderful farming county.

When they got wind and solar power, and specifically wind, they were able to spend a lot of money building up their infrastructure.

They redid the county fairground, which if you've spent any time in rural America, 4-H is huge.

They were able to work on the 4-H sites.

It ended up being a $2.8 million project.

investment just in the county fairground, which is always important for an ag community.

Money went into school districts, infrastructure, ambulances.

I mean, all the things that make a community vibrant and viable so that people stay there.

As population is lowered, I mean, we're seeing a contraction in the number of farms in the United States as they're consolidating.

Counties really need the infrastructure to keep people in place because if there aren't good schools, if there aren't programs,
