- Solarisgood 2y ago"create solar panels is still nowhere near that of traditional energy facilities, and it is quite small when compared to oil drilling, fracking or coal mining" Did you post it to indicate that solar is bad or that it is also not 100% perfect?
- tourmalinetaco 2y agoThat solar is not perfect and not as effective as nuclear, which actually easily produces energy surpluses whenever needed and can provide the energy that is required to mine it. As opposed to solar, which still relies on fossil fuels due to the minimal adoption of nuclear, while also introducing its own environmental impacts.

It’s not something I’ve seen mentioned in these discussions: https://amp.dw.com/en/germanys-leaking-nuclear-waste-dump/video-69502364 https://amp.dw.com/en/germanys-leaking-nuclear-waste-dump/vi... After learning about Asse I totally understand why the Germans are so negative to nuclear energy. It’s not just Chernobyl that scarred them.
