Millions of houses suddenly going underwater in the space of a few decades is going to cause a hell of a lot more issues in the housing market than adding solar panels.
- dublin 5y agoDespite all the wailing and hand-wringing, there is actually no credible evidence that sea levels are rising. (This ranges from tidal measurements to photographic comparisons of the same site over nearly two centuries!) Alarmist "climate models" based on wishcraft and paranoia can never be allowed to carry more weight than actual reality. (Well, assuming you beleive in actual science.)

- raxxorrax 5y agoYour house, if you own one that is, also needs to have a roof with the right angle and alignment for solar collectors to be feasible. It is hard to find a general rule for building houses. Solar collectors make sense, even the economic aspects. If people actually have the money to spend on them, they probably will do so anyway.
