Now I don't have a problem with towns having a say in what development does and doesn't go ahead.
But lets just forget about the climate change debate for a minute.

"The good burghers of Woodland, North Carolina, have successfully torpedoed plans for a solar farm, arguing the panels would suck up all the sun's energy, cause cancer and drive young people out of town."

"Jane Mann, a retired science teacher, reportedly told the council meeting she was concerned the panels would prevent photosynthesis and so stop the growth of nearby plants.
She said she had seen areas near solar panels where the plants were brown and dead due to lack of sunlight"

What sort of science are they teaching there?
How can you have a serious debate with people like this?
