McCarthy, uncensored: Gina McCarthy says her patience has “worn thin” for those who deny climate change: “If they haven’t figured out by now, what in God’s name could anyone say to them?” she asked. “I don’t check out flat Earth society and I’m not talking to climate deniers. That’s it. Sorry, I know I’m supposed to be for everybody, but my patience has worn thin over eight years.” West Virginia and other coal dependent regions are “in trouble,” according to McCarthy, but their struggles have paralleled shifts already occurring in the energy industry. She admitted agency rules might “steepen the curve” away from coal, but said “frankly, the coal industry has been going downhill since the 1980s. This is not something that happened over the past administration.” McCarthy did not explicitly mention Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who denies that human activity contributes to climate change and has campaigned in part on vague promises to create more coal mining jobs.

It’s the first time Minneapolis-based Target has grabbed the number one spot in the six years surveyed by the Solar Energy Industries Association, a trade group.
Target can generate 147 megawatts of solar energy — when the sun’s shining — edging out Walmart with 145 megawatts.
