If you read the Volokh Conspiracy, you would’ve read about the massive amounts of land required to produce green energy yesterday:

The math is simple: to have 8,500 megawatts of solar capacity, California would need at least 23 projects the size of Ivanpah, covering about 129 square miles, an area more than five times as large as Manhattan.

However, if you are a regular reader of motorcitytimes.com, you would’ve read about this concept one month ago:

The idea of dedicating 250 acres of land to cover with photovoltaic cells is a waste of real estate (even if it is a covered land fill). For example, Zeeland Michigan has a natural gas ‘peaker’ power plant sitting on only 30 acres and powering a community of over 800,000 people. Day or night. Rain or shine.

Just thought I would point it out.
