Massive solar panel farm in Indiana destroyed by storms.

Now, toxic chemicals from the broken panels will poison the soil, making it unusable.

Another green $cam.

The weather issue has been part of the pushback against solar and wind farms in the Midwest and South for 20 years. There are large wind farms throughout Tornado Alley with no way to protect them or to quickly rebuild them if they are blown away by a tornados or severe thunderstorms.

Stretch of I-40 near me has wide open fields of solar panels just waiting for the next tornado or bad hail storm. These things will get thrown all over one of the busiest stretches of interstate crossing the Mississippi river.

This is kind of funny, but isn’t. While we do need to find an alternative to fossil fuels, we know, solar and wind are both unreliable and inadequate, which won’t change.

I’m not sure if nuclear is the right way to go to fix that in the long-term, but until fusion reactors become a reliable option or some other method of generating electricity on a large scale fossil fuels is what we have

Why not fossil fuels? They are plentiful and less expensive.

It is. But people think Chernobyl is going to happen every 5 seconds because they are stupid. Nuclear would fix any energy crisis and it honestly surprises me that countries like China don’t have them everywhere

Solar on farmland has the potential to make farmland unusable.

The cynic in me thinks that's a feature, not a bug.

My daughter has the attitude I have concerning this trash. Butler, Ga’I had her stop, we got out of the car and walked along the fence.”See this white sled? Few people know that solar power is produced in dc, not ac power. You need an inverter sled to pass through the distribution transformer before the power goes to an Intertie Substation. That substation and protection relay inside the doghouse, protects the utility from dirty power. You would not believe the number of trips I took to correct wind and solar mistakes that blew up transformers. Can’t wait until Idaho has the small nukes for prime time. Problem with wind and solar not being reliable? When the owners bail, hundreds of towers and farms are left in place to remind of the lie the public was told.
