@PUREKIN0 @elonmusk If you are really seriously worried about land use, stop eating beef, which takes up 40% of all usable land. Otherwise land use is just Big Oil propaganda.

@elonmusk Nuclear is far better. Solar will destroy millions of miles of pristine land and will create massive amounts of waste.

One square mile on the surface receives ~2.5 Gigawatts of solar energy. That’s Gigawatts with a “G”. It’s ~30% higher in space. The Starlink global satellite network is entirely solar/battery powered. Factoring in solar panel efficiency (25%), packing density (80%) and usable daylight hours (~6), a reasonable rule of thumb is 3GWh of energy per square mile per day. Easy math, but almost no one does these basic calculations.

@AJamesMcCarthy @elonmusk Agriculture is using up 50% of all usable land. 80% of that to serve our beef consumption. Compared to that, Solar land use is tiny and a lame excuse propagated by Big Oil and believed by the gullible.

@elonmusk I am a big fan of solar on roofs. It’s just a no brainer, and the land is already used so it’s serving dual purpose. I just hate the idea of these huge solar farms covering beautiful natural landscapes when nuclear would significantly outperform it with a far smaller footprint.

We all owe a great debt to the Ukrainians. They are reminding us why democracy matters. They are reminding us that it is worth fighting for. And they are reminding us that in this era of fake news and alternative facts, the truth still matters.
