Paving Virginia with solar slabs is bad law

The ill-conceived Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA) has created an enormous stampede of proposed solar projects. The lineup of “subsidy farms” in progress is breathtaking. It is also stupid.
The numbers are incredible. Here are the ugly basics:
780 square miles of solar slabs so far and the list is growing. That is about 500,000 acres of countryside, farmland or forests destroyed and paved over.
Roughly 500 separate projects blanketing much of rural Virginia.
Requiring a staggering 160 million solar panels, mostly from China and all destined to become hundreds of tons of toxic waste.
The gruesome details are available on a county by county basis.
