9. I fully support solar on rooftops, parking lots and other dead places.

I live in a city that has rapidly increasing areas of solar power on rooftops, parking lots, and land severely damaged by previous industrial activity.

Large scale developments on biologically diverse lands are obscene. For the amount of power these large scale solar installations will produce over the life of the solar panels, and for the toxic waste generated in the manufacture of the solar panels, they are fully equivalent to strip mining.
