The Renewable Green Energy Paradox
Did you know that after about
15 years, solar panels lose their effectiveness and are no longer
useful, after which they go to waste.
However, this waste is not
like ordinary garbage, it is incredibly toxic and poses a significant
risk to the environment. In fact, solar panel waste is 300 times more
harmful than nuclear waste, and its disposal requires a costly and
specialized method.
Unfortunately, many countries send this toxic waste
to poorer nations.
This issue is only going to get worse as by
2030, we will have 8 million tons of "green" waste, and by 2050, that
number will balloon to a staggering 80 million tons of solar panel waste
that will likely have reached the end of their lives.
So my critical thinking side of the brain is acting up again.
