As residents of LaPorte County, we cherish our fertile farmlands and pristine water sources. We are deeply concerned about the proposed 2,600-acre solar project by RWE Clean Energy, LLC. This is not just a matter of landscape aesthetics; it's about preserving the integrity of our environment and protecting our community's health.

Our lands have been cultivated for generations, producing bountiful crops that feed not only us but also contribute significantly to Indiana’s agricultural economy. Indiana produces a wide array of products valued at over $18 billion according to a USDA study. The proposed solar project threatens to contaminate these precious soils and water sources with potential chemical leaks from thousands of solar panels. With such an enormous project planned by RWE Clean Energy, LLC., this risk cannot be overlooked.

We understand the need for renewable energy solutions but believe they should not come at the expense of local communities' health and well-being. We urge all stakeholders involved - including local authorities and state representatives - to reconsider this project.

Let us protect LaPorte County’s farmland and water resources from potential contamination risks posed by this massive solar installation plan! Sign this petition today if you stand with us in safeguarding our community’s environmental heritage for future generations.
