Just pointing out that there are real downsides to this energy source, like all the others.
Now is not the time to stop developing energy sources.
- pfdietz 1y agoThe space issue is obviously a bullshit red herring. PV provides massively more value per acre than agriculture does. If PV were seriously constrained by land costs, agriculture would be impossible. But society is perfectly fine with having land producing $500/acre/year of hay, instead of $25,000/acre/year of PV output.
