[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/damaged-solar-panels-hail-storm-will-likely-end/[/URL] According to [URL='https://www.cbsnews.com/news/green-energy-waste-problem-used-solar-panels-wind-blades/']CBS[/URL], more than 90 percent of panels are dumped in landfills when they are damaged, defective or reach the end of their usefulness. As of 2030, CBS said the panels will take up about 3,000 football fields worth of landfill space. “Polysilicon … can’t ever be recycled back into polysilicon. If it’s fake cycled into sand it would be absolutely toxic,” Randall said.
