[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 1053322, member: 18471"] If solar panels are such a "waste of money", why is UPS putting panels on buildings in North Jersey? Also local to my area colleges, and high schools have solar panels in the parking lots, covering the parking lots? Solar panels today are a lot more efficient than and I suppose the technology is different than 10 yrs ago. The one utility in my area has put 1 3x3ft panels on individual poles adding power to the grid What's the balance of jobs created with solar energy vs jobs lost from coal plants closing down. As far as losing jobs how many jobs have been replaced by computers, automated phone systems, containerized shipping? When I was a kid the corner gas station was pretty much the norm, now with cars lasting at least 100K miles with few or no repairs, getting 20+ mpg, the corner gas station has gone the way of the pay phone, (try to find one of those that works!). Sometimes these scenarios are called "progress". [/QUOTE]
