Uyawathanda amanzi okanye into? kubuza uChris Collins, umlawuli olawulayo weSolar One.
UNks Remington Platt uthe ewe, enkosi, kwaye wajoyina udadewabo, u-Ashley Wilcox Platt oneminyaka engama-22, ibhulukhwe uNicky Hilton waya eLauren's Paris, kwitafile yokusonga yeplastiki. UPlatt omncinci, osandul 'ukufumana isidanga se-bachelor kuphuhliso oluzinzileyo oluvela e-Columbia, wayenxibe iinwele zakhe ezirhuqwe ngasemva kunye nengubo evulekileyo ye-navy eluhlaza. Wathetha ngentetho eneentloni malunga neebhokisi zofudo, uphahla oluhlaza kunye nokukhula kwifama yosapho emantla eNew Jersey.
Nje ukuba lifike ixesha lokuba mna noLauren sifumane iilayisensi zethu zokuqhuba, besele sikwitrektara iminyaka elishumi, utshilo.
Ngokudibeneyo, ezi heiresses ngoonozakuzaku abangenakulindeleka besiXeko saseNew York kuphela esizimeleyo, isakhiwo esisebenza ngamandla elanga: Solar One. Kwiveki ephelileyo, babambe umbhiyozo ojikeleze uMlambo, igalaji leSolar 2, umboniso wekhabhoni ongathathi cala wekhabhoni wobuchwephesha obuza kuthatha indawo yeSolar One. Umakazi wabo H. Harley du Pont ubengusihlalo walo msitho kwaye wanika abatshana bakhe iwonga leMbasa yezeNdalo kwaBaselula. Isidlo sangokuhlwa kunye neekomiti ezincinci zifundwe ngokungathi ngubani kuluntu lwaseNew York: uCynthia noDan Lufkin, kaDonaldson, uLufkin noJenrette; UAnna Getty; UJamie Johnson; Intombi kaSenator John Kerry Alexandra; kunye negama elibizwa ngokuba nguMaximilian von Bismarck. Amatikiti avela kwinqanaba elincinci lama-200 ukuya kuma-25,000 eedola kumxhasi onikezelayo.
Ukuba iSolar One yavela eMonti East, kwindawo yomzi-mveliso wekhonkrithi endala, bubungqina be-NIMBYism yabahlali base-East Side-abo babonisa uqhankqalazo ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yama-80s kwabangela ukuba kuphuhliswe intengiso kunye nendawo yokuhlala ebizwa ngokuba yiRiverwalk ukuba ibune umdiliya; nakubukrelekrele bukatitshala osele esidla umhlala-phantsi kunye nomhlali wase Stuy egama linguJoy Garland, owacebisa ukuba kwakhiwe iziko lokufunda ngendalo esingqongileyo endaweni yalo.
Namhlanje, kwiminyaka emihlanu emva kokusekwa kwayo, iSolar One ibamba iinkqubo zemfundo eluhlaza, ifundisa ngozinzo kubantwana besikolo kwaye iqhuba umnyhadala wezobugcisa oxhotyiswa ngemitha yelanga.
Sineziganeko ezininzi kulo lonke ixesha lasehlotyeni, kwaye zonke zixhotyiswe ngophahla, utshilo uMnu Collins, ebhekisa kwindlwana yeefoto ezithobekileyo kunye ne-back-up yebhetri ephezulu. Umnumzana Collins, onamehlo aluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, ochetywe kakuhle iindevu ezimhlophe kunye nomoya wobungcali oxhokonxa uRichard Dreyfuss, wahlala esihlalweni sakhe, ngedolo lakhe elithe nca etafileni, wacacisa uSolar 2, oza kuphakama kwindawo awayehleli kuyo ngelo xesha FDR Qhuba nge-photovoltaic yelanga eliza kuhamba malunga neenyawo ezili-19 ngaphezulu kwesakhiwo.
Ke xa uqhuba ecaleni kweF.D.R. Qhuba, uza kubona ngophahla, utshilo uMnu Collins. Kwaye iya kuba nekhusi eliluhlaza elisongelwe ngeenxa zonke, kwaye iya kuba ngamandla e-zero kunye namanzi e-zero zero [isakhiwo].
Okokuqala, uMnu. Collins kufuneka agqibe ukunyusa ingxowa-mali yesakhiwo. Oko phantse kugqityiwe. Nje ukuba ulwakhiwo luqale-ngokufanelekileyo kulo nyaka uzayo-uyakusungula iphulo lokuxhasa ngemali imali yabucala yombutho, imishini apho oodade bakaPlatt kufuneka beze ngokufanelekileyo. Inyaniso iyaxelwa, ngokunjalo nentlekele kwiGulf, njengobungqina obucacileyo njengayo nayiphi na into yokuba ukuxhomekeka kwethu ekungcoleni kuya kufuneka kuphele.
Ndicinga ukuba olu luhlobo lokuvuka, kwaye indlela iBP ekusingathe ngayo oku ihlwempuzeke kakhulu, kangangokuba ndicinga ukuba izisa umanyano phakathi kwabo bonke abantu, abezokusingqongileyo kwanabantu abebekade bebiyile ngaphambili, kuba cinga ukuba ngumzekelo nje onzima wento esiyenzayo kwimeko-bume yethu ngoku, utshilo uLauren Remington Platt.
Kunzima ukungavumelani neemvakalelo zikaNks. Platt, kodwa ukuhlala luhlaza akusoloko kulula, ngakumbi xa kulula ukuba ungakwenzi. Ukulandela udliwanondlebe, oodade uPlatt babiza umnumzana uCollins adieu, bahamba kancinci ngasentshona ezantsi kwisitalato sama-23 bazama ukukhwela iteksi.
