Uncontrolled storm water runoff and erosion are well-documented byproducts of industrial-scale solar construction. This massive increase in watershed sedimentation impacts all downstream rivers and waterways. Water contamination doesn’t stop with the end of construction. Removal of all trees and deep-rooted plants, along with inadequate stormwater controls lead to runoff, erosion and water contamination issues. These […]

1.  Industrial-scale solar power plants should not be placed on land already zoned for A-1 (agricultural) and RA (rural area) use. The local planning commission and boards of supervisors should vote to reject industrial-scale solar power plants based on this reason alone. 2. The land (forest, farmland, vegetation, soil) is forever destroyed.

Over time, industrial-scale solar counties’ property values will decline and the county become less desirable, while other location’s values will increase. An unbiased and credible research […]

Germany has stood at the vanguard of solar energy adoption for decades. Now, as older solar panels begin to reach the end of their life, Germany will once again be at the forefront—this time to answer the question: What are we going to do with all the solar panel waste?Eyes are on Solar Energy to […]
