   @kkarhan @karolherbst @ShadowJonathan harvesting sun rays leaves a lot on the table to never be recovered though. I would argue that allowing the sun to feed plants which can then be used to produce biofuels is a way to improve power density and reduce loss/waste. Plus a real farm is a lot nicer to look at then a solar farm.

     @empressEvora @karolherbst @ShadowJonathan needless to say, #power cannot be generated, only transformed and converted from one form to another.

     At least that's how physics says so.

     And thus I think it's more reasonable to harness tue ~ 175W / m² global average (at ground pole-to-pole 24/7) of energy the sun shoves onto earch, because by the time that star will have burned out, we'd have more pressing issues - if we as a specoes will still exist at that point in time...

     The @EU_Commission doesn't even try to exert control over the #EU's #IT...

     Much less of it's #Energy production...

     I do agree in that #infrastructure like #energy, #transportation and #distribution grids should be owned by the public, and whether that's a state-owned enterprise, a ministry, a cooperative or whatever is more of a tool discussion.

     @empressEvora @karolherbst @ShadowJonathan that assumes state and corporations are completely seperate entities and not run by people - if not the same people.

     THAT WAS NEVER THE CASE!

     Far from it...
