the process to create solar panels is more damaging to the environment and humans than nuclear.

Which is why Japan is ramping up its nuclear generation and turning away from solar electricity.

Or is it the other way around?



Hey shit happens and when you build a nuclear power plant on a fault line, the chances of shit happening go up... still doesn't change the fact that solar has had a more harmful impact on humanity overall... solar has no chance of meeting peoples electric needs which is why big oil actually sponsors it... because they they know it has no real chance to compete... nuclear on the other hand is another story... Anyways this is getting slightly off  topic, I still do not believe that installing solar for the sole purpose of saving costs on mining will work, but feel free to convince me otherwise with some real numbers.
