While the courts battle out whether or not the Keystone pipeline will be built through Nebraska, farmers and ranchers are already planning solar installations directly in the path of the proposed Keystone pipeline. The solar projects would do two things: The first is that it would provide more energy for the state of Nebraska than the Keystone pipeline ever will since the Keystone pipeline doesn’t provide energy to Nebraska. The second is that it makes a statement about the idea of job creation. Though President Trump cited jobs as a reason for green-lighting Keystone, the project would primarily create temporary jobs. The solar and wind power industries, by contrast, are among the fastest-growing sources of new jobs.
