Part 1: #ClimateChange
Wow.
Solution to the #ClimateCrisis using #SolarPanels for #farming: #Agrivoltaics
"Properly designed solar installations can increase food #harvests, reduce the need for #irrigation, revive dying lakes, rescue #pollinators, restore #soils + cool overheated humans—all while producing more power than conventional solar arrays."
"In 1982, researchers @ the #FraunhoferInstitute for Solar Energy (ISE) in Germany proposed a... solution..."
