Brief Summary:
A solar power farm in the Mojave Desert was planned to undergo a solar energy project which caused a lot of tension between environmentalists and the developers. Hundreds of small mirrors would redirect desert sunlight onto a central tower.

Short Response:
I think it was responsible behavior on the part of Brightsource. It was a major development that was potentially very profitable.
