    Yeah they`re all laughing..HaHaHaHa...Until something bad goes down in their little garbage dump area of the world & they expect us to fix it, give money, or protect them with our military.

    Mebbe the next time there is some natural disaster in some God forsaken part of the world where people earn like $7 a year - Trump will make sure they get nothing. I think it`s called Karma.

    Solar panels create 300 times more toxic waste per unit of energy than do nuclear power plants.
    If solar and nuclear produce the same amount of electricity over the next 25 years that nuclear produced in 2016, and the wastes are stacked on football fields, the nuclear waste would reach the height of the Leaning Tower of Pisa (52 meters), while the solar waste would reach the height of two Mt. Everests (16 km).`
    In countries like China, India, and Ghana, communities living near e-waste dumps often burn the waste in order to salvage the valuable copper wires for resale. Since this process requires burning off the plastic, the resulting smoke contains toxic fumes that are carcinogenic and teratogenic (birth defect-causing) when inhaled.

    Leaving aside the whole Sky is Falling for [today`s reason] of so many newsflashes...

    If somebody`s burning stuff they shouldn`t be, that oughta be addressed (yeah, easier said..) and IMO that isn`t an argument for abandoning something like Solar Energy Production any more than it`s a reason to do away with PCs, TVs, and cellphones.

    Also, I question whether such Electronic Waste is comparable to Nuclear Waste in any meaningful way.

    kbmag1- Heh heh, you and me both! Why am I spending [currently over a minute] on this sort of thing because, as I keep saying... I can`t imagine why anybody`d put thought into such stuff unless they`re planning to do something about it...

    Just wish the powers that be (regulators/congress/etc) would put thought into it before mandating crap (like abandoning incandescent for cfl)

    Ronkh- Ah, yeah.. we`re on the same page again Heh heh, it`s almost....like a certain Politics Thread...how you can get me expending resources on [certain stuff], even if it`s just time and bandwidth. Note to self...

    And yeah, with so many genuinely pressing and urgent matters to attend to, our Govt. sure sticks its nose into all sorts of, uhm..[stuff].

    I *will* say that IMO the incandescent/old-school fluorescent ban, which *THOROUGHLY* [ticks] me off and directly impacts my life in a negative manner, might be [perdition] on guys like me but it probably *has* precipitated a lot of tech developments that otherwise wouldn`t have happened as soon as they did. Just look at how LEDs have changed the game with regard to high-output flashlights among other things.
