Those Solar Panels Libs Said Would Save the Planet Are Too Toxic for Landfills

You know you’re getting old when you can remember plenty of Next Big Things in green energy, sources of power that were going to free us from dirty fossil fuels once and for all and save the planet.

There’s been tidal power, wind energy, hydroelectric power, geothermal energy — I’ve seen them all. I even remember that awful period in the mid-aughts when people were turning those ugly 1970s Mercedes highway cruisers into sputtering biodiesel repair-cost magnets. When it comes to any source of electricity and/or motive power that Ed Begley, Jr. might theoretically get behind, I’ve seen them come and go like some sort of old fogey watching the environmentalist movement from his porch.
