Last Decade Brought New Gold Rush To West — In Renewable Energy

The last decade as seen increased interest in renewable energy; in the west, it was mainly solar and wind. And that created an opportunity, but it also created challenges.

Here to talk about how the government, energy companies and conservationists and environmentalists handled those is Ian Dowdy, director of the Sustainable Landscapes and Communities team at the Sonoran Institute.

Mark Brodie is a co-host of The Show, KJZZ’s locally produced news magazine. Since starting at KJZZ in 2002, Brodie has been a host, reporter and producer, including several years covering the Arizona Legislature, based at the Capitol.
