Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

At what cost?

The recent tornado in Kankakee IL also hit a solar farm in northern Indiana. Right now, they are discussing who is responsible for the cleanup. The cost is unknown as well at this time.

I can think of multiple industries that could move into the area that would produce hundreds of jobs instead of a handful.

There are better uses for farmland. Solar panels can cover parking lots and building roofs, for the pathetic amount of energy they produce in this part of the globe.

We all could. But where are they then? And jobs really wasn't the point of them putting this in, just a perk.

This explains how much they can power. With what's going on in the world today, it's probably a good idea to have a Plan B anyway.
