Dark side of clean energy: Solar panels leaving behind toxic trash

video | July 12, 2022

We are approaching towards the first big wave of discarded solar panels. The problem of solar e-waste is real, what's even worse is that most of the dead solar panels go straight to the landfills because the cost of recycling them is high....
