You don’t get solar with our lots of mines.

Solar panels and batteries are recyclable. Oil and gas are not.

Like most recycling it’s not really as great as you might hope or 100% possible.

Hopefully in time they improve the recycling of alternative power.

Batteries and solar get used 1000s of times in their lifetime, then over 80% (and growing) are recycled. I haven’t heard of any fossil fuels being recycled and burned a second time yet.

Every bit of fossil fuel that taken put of the ground and burned ends up in the air. Solar and batteries don’t.
