So, as vast tracks of land get converted into solar ‘farms’, you’ve got to wonder: why the rush to convert perfectly usable farmland, or ecologically important wildland at scale like this, rather than putting solar panels where we have already paved over everything anyway?
A city filled with panels will be distributed, owned by thousands, while *this* 👆 can be monopolized by the same people who already control your access to energy.
