California's Proposition 7 Prompts a Highly Charged Debate. By Nancy Vogel, LATimes, October 5, 2008. "Proposition 7 on the November ballot aims to hurry the day when more of California's electricity comes from windmills, solar panels and other oil-free sources, requiring the state's utilities to get half their power from renewable energy by 2025. But it would actually hinder renewable electricity production, according to an unusual coalition of opponents that includes environmental groups, solar and wind companies that may appear to stand to profit from the measure, and the state's three biggest private utilities... They say the measure would punish the smallest clean-energy producers because their output would not be counted toward Proposition 7 goals."
