All the other types of power plants use massive amount of concrete too and space (except solar panel installed on roofs)
- p_j_w 5y agoSolar panels aren't all that great at EOL, either. They've got some toxic materials in them and aren't, as yet, easily recyclable. They beat the shit out of fossil fuels as far as the environment goes, but they're hardly without their own problems.
