In Texas over 400,000 solar panels were destroyed by hail. Caused insurance loss of at least $70 million. People in the area of course are concerned about possible chemical contamination from the broken panels.

Destroying the environment to save the environment seems logical to someone I am sure.

Many of these companies are LLC's (limited liability companies) for just this reason.

I have long debated over whether LIttle Bobbie was a Russia-based troll or a China-based troll, but now he seems to have outted himself. If he is "choking on fossil fuel emissions" then he is clearly NOT in any western country and probably not Russia. That just leaves China, the main place left in the world where people are choking on fossil fuel emissions, as well as lots of other environmental pollution. That also fits with the way he promotes Chairman Mao's Cultural Revolution, the latest phase of which in western countries is now called "cancel culture".

The link says "Could be" a source of PFAS. But so is that new stain resistant shirt you just bought or Fast food wrapper you threw out.
These chemical are way over used, thanks DuPont, but do indeed have some practical use.

If we weren't choking on fossil fuel emissions you would have a point.

Lets look at harmful substances leaking from solar panels right here in North Carolina. One of the state's biggest environmental concerns in the last few years has been contamination of water supllies in southeastern NC with the chemical GenX. Scientists at the EPA have pointed to solar panels as a source of GenX in NC groundwater:

As usual, it is the ramblings of far left troll Bolshevik Bob that are not true. Here is an article from Forbes on the toxic composition of solar panels:

Because your post is fundamentally not true. I would argue that's the reason.

This threat is right here in Beaufort County with the big solar project in Terra Ceia and several smaller ones around the county, which occupy some of the county's richest farmland. A bad hail storm here could wreck those solar panels, releasing dangerous chemicals that could destroy that farmland for generations. Why did our county commissioners allow this??????
