  • People against rooftop are the craziest to me. Not only does it give you essentially free energy, it also shades the roof, cooling the building just by existing. Every factory on earth should cover their roofs with solar panels. It just makes too much sense not to. Even from a capitalist perspective, it’s stupid not to. And lost hours due to heat stress are common in manufacturing, throw up some solar panels and lower your indoor temps while shoving money in your pockets from energy savings. Heat stress injuries go down, OSHA rating goes up, insurance goes down. It just doesn’t make sense to fight solar.




  • Right? Who’s going to pay money for this “service”? How would you even monetize it? What country would pay money for it? Most countries wouldn’t pay a dime unless everyone paid the same. The problem is that even if this was a positive thing, if you’re Belgium, and france and Germany pay into it, you’ll get the effects without paying. Unless you can make it specifically act for the “subscribers” nobody will buy. And even then, the gaps would make it so others who don’t do it, will minimize the effect of those that do.

    Logically it doesn’t make sense. Let alone the scientific side, which we simply don’t know. At best it delays the problem. At worst? Who knows.
