Had a discussion yesterday about solar energy-—really big here in Nevada.

Friend has a long time friend who is a solar engineer.

Engineer stated that systems DO NOT last much more than 10 years, and there is no way to do any maintenance by the homeowner to extend that life. The 30 year life of the systems is bunk.

The carbon footprint created by the manufacture of all the components & installation of the solar systems is far larger than ANY savings produced.

This solar crap is all a hoax, along with climate change being caused by man.

So going solar is not really helping save the planet and all that???? Who knew??? The liberals would be shocked to hear this............

This reminds me a bit of the story of electric cars. Liberals love to push electric cars, but, do not consider that the electricity to recharge the electric cars will come from coal fired power plants in many areas of the country.

If we could magically have tens of millions of electric cars on the road tomorrow, we arguably would be producing many more of their dreaded green house gases, as we would have to produce that much more electricity in fossil fuel fired power plants to generate more power to recharge their electric cars. But the liberals don’t think things through; don’t think of “unintended consequences” of what they want to see happen.
