A new report exhaustively chronicles the local resistance to renewable energy at play in the U.S. The report, published this week by the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law at Columbia University, finds at least 100 ordinances have been passed in 31 states that block or constrict construction of new renewable energy facilities.
