Non-Governmental Organizations have expressed concern that the regional mitigation strategy for the Dry Lake Solar Energy Zone utilizes Gold Butte as the location for offsite mitigation for impacts from solar development, and that those restoration activities are not durable with the presence of trespass cattle.
Chinese Energy investors are looking to acquire properties and real estate in the US, was his point.
and he's 100% correct.
He is right, but that doesn't answer my question. How does a mitigation project for solar panels in Nevada relate to attempted land purchases for oil production in the Gulf of Mexico?
i think just simply the fact that they are purchasing energy assets in our country. nothing more.

Never underestimate Chinas hidden agenda, Stealing our technology and the collapse of the US by any means nessary. Any politican who is suspected of being balls deep on a 5 billion deal with the Chinese in my book is guilty of treason
Okay thats it. Stolen from rewire:
The "Chinese energy firm" being discussed is ENN Mojave Energy, and the project was canceled in 2013 after languishing for many months unbuilt and unfunded. There haven't been many articles on the project since 2012, for the simple reason that it became clear it probably wasn't happening around then.
Daniels did not specifically say that the ENN Mojave Energy project was planned for the land on which Bundy's cattle now trespass. But that's certainly what people took away from it: Harry Reid ordered Bundy's cattle removed so that his son Rory could build a solar project on it for the Chinese Communists.
There are two little problems with that interpretation of the story, one of which lends support for the notion that Americans have no idea how to read maps: Bundy's cattle are in Bunkerville, Nevada, and the proposed ENN plant would have been sited in Laughlin Nevada, which is almost 180 miles away.
Even if ENN's project was still a going concern, alleging that Bundy's cattle are being moved because of ENN is about like saying you got kicked out of your apartment in Los Angeles because your landlord wants to build a new building in Fresno. When the real reason is you haven't paid rent since the first year of the Clinton Administration.
The other little problem? The idea of land being used as mitigation for habitat destroyed elsewhere pretty much depends on the habitat being protected. Which means not building solar on it, whether by a Chinese-owned firm or an all-American crew like First Solar.
Done.
so what if it has?
I'd sell my company and all material possessions to China (or anyone else) for 1/10th that price- and be happy about it.
Give ya'll a little hint, Clark county at the bottom of the state, Next county up is Lincoln= Area 51, Close enough ?
