The poor and working class subsidize the rich, while contributing to climate change and polluting the air they breathe - all in the interest of increasing profits for the techno-fuedalist / capitalist class.

    It’s better than gas, but I’d hate to think how large of a footprint that’d require.

    The only way I’d be on board is if they put the panels 15m up and the land was still used for growing food, which would then be provided to the local community for free.

      Solar can be installed over other stuff: parking lots, waterways, rooftops, etc.

      Also, agrivoltaics is possible. Not all plants do well in direct sunlight.
