    The 'green' movement's achievements are mounting - so is the rubbish:

    Excerpt:

    More than 100,000 tonnes of solar panel waste are forecast to enter Australia’s waste stream by 2035

    https://greenchemenergy.com/articles-of-interest/the-solar-panel-toxic-waste-problem/

    Excerpt:

    Vast increase in Nitrogen Trifluoride (NF3) used in solar panels has increased 1,057% over the past 25 years. NF3 is reported to be 17,200 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas.

    In Japan, recycling solar waste produced through 2020 will take about 19 years at 10,000 tons a year, yet expected solar growth up to 800.000 tons a year, 80 times the amount
    Is that what one should refer to as Japanese efficiency? rolleyes.png

    Excerpt:

    “Electric vehicle batteries, solar panels, and wind turbines result in a massive amount of waste and pollution.

    the present steady progression of wind turbine blades and solar panels toward landfills will soon become a march of epic proportions. The only thing inevitable about wind and solar is mountains of toxic rubbish heading for a landfill near you.

    How and who on earth thinks all this is green and so good for the planet?? Loonie tunes.

    Meanwhile vast areas of vegetation and with it biodiversity are disappearing somewhat faster than they can recycle any of this rubbish:

    Excerpt:

    Close to 1600 hectares of Forestry Corporation land would be made available for wind turbines and solar farms under a plan that would allow the corporation to boost its income by millions of dollars.

    Boosting income at the expense of the environment - now that is the real green. Trees and it's root ripped up only to be replaced by the root of all evil. We want to make money, so as for saving the environment - what's that got to do with the agenda of saving the planet?? AIMO
