<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SilverSurfer, post: 1127887, member: 21603&quot;]A solar panel has little chance of melting down, and if it does, doesn&#039;t pose a serious health or environmental risk.&nbsp; Nor does a solar panel explode.&nbsp; Nor does it give people black lung disease.&nbsp; It also doesn&#039;t cause flames to shoot out someone&#039;s faucet.&nbsp;&nbsp; Nor the removal of an entire mountain top.&nbsp; They also don&#039;t cause hundreds of thousands of crude to be leaked into our oceans and appear on our shores.&nbsp; They also don&#039;t require the maintaining of retention walls that house noxious substances like toxic ash.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do you think it&#039;s time we got more serious about green technologies?</p><p><br /></p><p>P.S.&nbsp; With all the talk about not leaving debts for our grandchildren to pay for......how about also leaving them a source of energy that won&#039;t require them spending billions of dollars to clean up after our poor decision making by trying to be cheap now.&nbsp; The only difference between spending the money now, vs later is a benefit to health and long term sustainability to the environment.&nbsp; As things stand, if Japan has a real melt down, they will need to concrete the area and declare it uninhabitable for over 30 years.&nbsp; This can&#039;t be cheap by anyone&#039;s standards vs putting in green technology now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
