> Need a new solar panel?

Recycle one of your old ones. You don't burn solar panels to make energy.*

I think people are still stuck in the fossil fuel mindset. I've started calling it gas brain.

* What happens if China stops selling you panels while you embark on electrification? Nothing. You already have enough electricity from your existing sources (presumably) so you just pause the PV rollout until they wise up. And other countries are starting to get into PV manufacturing.
