The Big Problem With Solar Power

There are somewhat valid concerns, though the price of battery storage is coming down and the impact on solar development of agricultural and forested lands is much less then what it might appear from the view of major arterial highways. High voltage transmission lines tend to follow highways, and often highways are routed in areas with poor agricultural land and less productive wildlife habitat. If you take a deep look at solar, it's not as bad some of the critics, often bolster by fossil fuel propaganda, say it is.
