Hops for beer flourish under solar panels. They're not the only crop thriving in the shade.
A farm in Bavaria is covering its hops with solar panels, providing electricity to 250 households and shading the plants from the increasingly scorching summer heat in the process. Solar panels atop crops has been gaining traction in recent years. As incentives and demand for clean energy skyrocket, researchers look into making the best use of the land, and farmers seek ways to shield their crops from blistering heat. The team in Germany says its effort is the first agrivoltaic project that’s solely focused on hops, but projects have sprouted around the world in several countries for a variety of different grains, fruits and vegetables.

Its a little like #Brexit isn't it?
Dr. D. Elisabeth GlasscoThe G.I. Bill created the prosperity & laid the groundwork for the American superpower. But the postwar boom stopped at the color line. Black American frustration at discriminatory distribution of G.I. benefits would soon erupt into the modern Civil Rights Movement. These discriminatory practices and systemic barriers faced by Black-American veterans under the G.I. Bill had far-reaching consequences that persist today.
