Won’t…. Won’t salt … completely ruin all the circuitry?

This is the difference between the US and China. China’s goal is around national interests, where the US’s goal is entirely greed. Solar makes complete sense, especially with the new demands for power, but they’re not lining our politicians pockets, so they’re blackballed. It’s why China may outpace the US in ai because they’re not basing the decisions on who is giving them the most money. There is some hurdles for China, but their decisions aren’t based on money .
Edit:Changed from capitalism to greed, which is more accurate atm

Given the current state of affairs in the Middle East, I wouldn’t be surprised if China ramps up their solar and renewable energy capabilities vastly over the next few years.

We could do this but we have a toddler in charge.

Looking at the current events in the middle east. Reneables are the future. And these are the kind of solutions we need.

The only reason this wouldn’t work here in the States is that you would have a bunch of raving lunatics charging into these farms to destroy and steal the panels under the pretense that global climate change doesn’t exist and it must somehow be “damaging the natural ecosystem” as their excuse.

5 years and we see the environment changes which were not speculated.. and it will be at positive side only.. their solar expansion in desert is an example..

It’s crazy how it’s clearly communication coming from china’s “government”
Every post is a publicity stunt.
Not a redditor sharing something cool, no it’s clearly propaganda.

Why do so many people here not know what a reservoir is???

That’s cool, but have they heard of fracking? How does this even hurt the poor people of an area?

would be cool to check out this sort of thing on google earth

If the people running America right now were in control back in the day, we wouldn’t have an interstate highway system.

Fucking China living in the future while the US is going back to the 30s

***ITT*** : top comments by people that don’t know what a reservoir is, despite every follow up comment of all those top comments explaining it to those people.

ITT, people not knowing what a man-made reservoir is.

I agree with this, and I don’t mean to disparage by asking, but I wonder if this has any effects on wildlife.

Don’t tell Trump about it. He will call it woke.

Scrolled into the comments to see how Redditors would flip this around to China bad and not disappointed by what I found. People come up with some really stupid stuff when China is involved lmfao

The cope in the comments is astounding. It’s sceptic hour.
“I can’t believe they’re destroying the wildlife in a manmade lake…”
“They are reducing evaporation from this evaporation inducing megaproject… creating drought!”
“Won’t the panels break from the salt in this freshwater reservoir, and thus poison the water?”
Some of you are in a very american time in your lives

And the ecosystem for millenia used to that evaporation?

Finally, enough solar panels to power one house

How do they clean and repair the ones in the middle?

Do you have a moment to discuss the benefits of “clean coal”?

Could have had this in the West but they decided the real world wasn’t as important as the internet.

Nice, all this evaporated water was going somwhere, sustaining an ecosystem somewhere. Unless that water vapour was blowing out into the sea, the water shortage has just been displaced not fixed.

China has replaced the United States as the world’s largest superpower. I feel like America is doomed after the 2024 election.

Yeah, well in Amerika we burn oil. Top that!

The contrast between those seemingly never-ending rows of floating solar panels and the cobbled together looking boat which looks like it‘s been passed down from grandpappy is a great encapsulation of my image of China

Damn
I love AI generated China.
And kill the ecosystem below it due to reduced sunlight in the water?
And the water keeps the panels cool, increasing efficiency

How does the impact the ecosystem?
