Somehow I don't think that's what MisterBeale was trying to say at all. By all accounts the film was made to spark controversy and productive discussion. It largely failed to do so because they got critical facts wrong and were otherwise sloppy as Michael Moore films have tended to be. Moore simply providing us with perspectives at odds with the corporate norms doesn't necessarily help anything. But it certainly does fuel conspiracy nuts' wet dreams.The film ends with Gibbs reflecting that "Infinite growth on a finite planet is suicide", imploring the audience to take back the environmental movement from billionaires and capitalists.
thats a pretty small looking airport for all those panels.
The airport operates three passenger terminals and one cargo terminal with a total area of over 225,000 square metres (2,421,880 sq ft).

Two years later:
We can meet the energy requirements for 10 homes. Over a year. 15:55 (traffic humming) 15:57 - [Woman asking question] Will that be an incentive to put more solar on? 16:01 - [Nelson] Well, if you wanted to make all of the energy required for the city of Lansing over a year? 16:07 - [Woman asking question] Well, how about-- 16:08 - [Nelson] You'd have a solar array that was three miles by five miles. 16:11 - [Woman asking question] Right. But-- 16:12 - [Nelson] We're not gonna do that.
Ahem:While the average American household uses around 30kW/Day
Okay, per day. Never mind.In 2021, the average annual electricity consumption for a U.S. residential utility customer was 10,632 kilowatthours (kWh), an average of about 886 kWh per month. Louisiana had the highest annual electricity consumption at 14,302 kWh per residential customer, and Hawaii had the lowest at 6,369 kWh per residential customer.
I'm no big fan of those gigantic windmills, especially on land, but that's what I meant by "sloppy." Man-on-the-street interviews are comedy, not journalism.
18:18 - [Jeff] And how long are these towers supposed to last? 18:20 - [Man] 20-something years, 20-- 18:21 - [Citizen] I know, it's just a nanosecond. 18:24 - [Jeff] 20 years? 18:25 - [Citizen] Oh, it's a nanosecond in the time of energy.
In terms of durability, wind turbines last an average of about 25 years.
Carbon Rivers has achieved 99.9% recycled glass fiber purity from different end-of-life waste streams like wind turbine blades. The complete elimination of contaminants, along with high recoverable fiber aspect ratio and performance allows recycled glass fiber to displace virgin fiberglass in different composite applications. The high purity also opens the potential for remelting—allowing recycled glass fiber to be incorporated into virgin fiberglass, thereby closing the material loop and creating a circular economy.

24:50 - [Announcer] This is the raw material chips are made of, sand. 24:53 - [Zehner] They don't use sand at all.
That should suffice.Most solar panels are made of silicon, which is the main component in natural beach sand.
Silicon is abundantly available, making it the second most available element on Earth.
However, converting sand into high grade silicon comes at a high cost and is an energy intensive process. High-purity silicon is produced from quartz sand in an arc furnace at very high temperatures.
Always nice when one of the moderators is also one of the biggest trolls on the site.
