    Conservatively, using the land currently used for fuel ethanol production in the USA for solar instead would add more generating capacity than the entire capacity of the USA today. It’s a terrible use of land, not to mention energy and chemical inputs.

      To say nothing about water usage, which is probably an unsolvable problem.

      I’m sure that something can still be grown in the shade of the solar panels, shade houses are a thing after all.

        I read an article somewhere about how solar panels can (and are by some countries) keep the ground below cool enough to grow plants and crops and such when the climate is otherwise not suitable to do so. Quite interesting indeed!

        Livestock.

        Sheep grazing is actually a reasonably common secondary usage of solar farms

        That’s a very active area of research, there’s a handful of farms on at least the west coast experimenting with utilizing solar in that way. Either to shade certain crops or as shade for livestock, while of course getting the solar energy benefits

    I’m sorry but what is the “b***” word supposed to be? I am genuinely at a loss of what it is.

    As an aside, self censoring is dumb as fuck.

    What does ‘b***’ mean in the first panel?

    It looks like censorship, but I can’t think of any b-words that make sense there.

    Iirc, that is one of the major ways that Brazil produces bio-ethanol, a lot of it was from the waste products too. It’s been a while but I think the energy density vs ag production cost is also higher vs corn. You can then used the remnants from that for biomass pellet production for essentially full cycle use. You get the sugar, ethanol, then either fertilizer/biochar or biomass pellets for energry production.

    Well it could be used as an effective carbon storage after you strip off the hydrogen and bury it in the ground. I believe that they call that a reverse coal mine… I think we could even exploit current US government stupidity to fund it by mentioning coal
