how much of the science is settled? i have no clue, i don’t claim to know, but i wish i knew.

the answers aren’t as settled or as obvious, as the zealots want us to believe. They just aren’t that settled. someone ask that 16 yer old at the UN if she’s aware of this. i bet not.

solar panels have a finite life to produce electricity, meaning they become trash. they aren’t easy to recycle, and they fairly toxic as it turns out.

You're linking an article by a zealot with a solution, perhaps you missed it.

If the industry responds with foresight, Mulvaney notes, it could end up sparking clean innovation including “developing PV modules without hazardous inputs and recycled rare metals." And that's something everyone can get powered up about.

But it will require investment by someone to develop the green technology, maybe it could be part of your favored Green New Deal.
