But if we convert a lot of solar energy into electricity instead of letting it turn into heat that could usher a new ice age. That's about as reasonable as you

That's about as reasonable as your point about tapping enough heat from Earth's core to disturb the magnetic field.
- adrianN 4y agoThe electricity will eventually be turned into heat too. Since PV panels are pretty dark, in most places where you put them they will increase the amount of heat generated, because less light is reflected back to space.
- eloff 4y agoIt all gets turned into heat anyway. Whether at the solar panel or in the electrical transmission process, inverters, or the actual devices being powered.
