Did you know that the trucks that delivered those panels and the machines that made thwm were powered by fossil fuels? When is the solar energy industry going to use their own product?

Are those trucks powered by coal?

are there any tax credits for these solar panels?

That's typically the only way they make any kind of financial sense at all.

They're not powered by solar power, i can tell you that. Funny how you address the trucks, but conveniently fail to note that the plants which provide electricity to the factories which make the panels almost certainly are powered by coal. Hack.

Yes there are. That's the obvious point which makes this entire thread too stupid for human consumption.

Almost 45% of your states homes are powered by coal.

should the museum have spent $20,000 on solar panels? Or $70,000,000 on a coal-fired electrical plant? What would you have done, hoggie?

Solar energy has become cheaper than coal. I think most people don't realize that the reason coal is disappearing isn't because of obama but the low cost of natural gas.

“We’re gonna put a lot of coal miners and coal companies outta business,” Clinton said.

About the same time Hillary does.

Do you think it would be cheaper to power 1 million+ homes, businesses, streetlights, etc on solar power or coal?


Ahhh, I see I made a request which requires thought on your part, which is clearly an impossibility for you. Carry on.
