At that projected rate how many years until Solar generates 1 tenth of 1% of the energy demand. Also how many tons of toxic chemicals are in these systems that is growing at a rate of 40% and what is the recycling plan or safe disposal plan.

Is it true that the chemical composition of solar cells there are all kinds of compounds that have never been found in the environment?

Like mbte another man made chemical made so stable.

We could also use windmills to generate power... alternative sources is one thing, but conservation of oil is a failed experiment... but in the meantime, we should be drilling right here in the U.S. and end our dependence on any foreign oil if the liberals in Washington didn't shoot down the bill... ask your liberal buddies why they prefer to support the Arabs.....
