Countries around the world use more land for golf courses than wind or solar energy, according to a new study published in the journal Environmental Research Communications.
What city do you live in? I wanna see your people vote to put a freaking utility grade wind or solar farm in it. You’re a clown who thinks only rich people play golf. You know who else plays golf? Lots of seniors who can no longer play soccer, should I insult your inability to apply 2 seconds of thinking before responding. Hey genius we have something called power lines for a reason!
I’m fantastic, I am avid player of soccer and golf and do not want a power utility in the middle of my city when it can easily exist outside the city and we can retain green spaces for people to enjoy. This post is on an energy page. The easy solution is for governments to subsidize all homes and buildings their own solar power and battery storage allow unused power to be sold back to the grid. You won’t see this happen because it would decimate the power industry which obviously has a massive lobby. Yet you believe we should sell our green spaces to utility companies? Idiotic. Meanwhile capitalists are funding things like crypto coin which uses insane amounts of power to create an unneeded digital commodity.
I’ll reiterate, this article is garbage on so many levels but it clearly has an incredibly gullible audience who can’t get out of their own way with a little bit of thinking.
Again I’m a full supporter of renewable energy, I just believe we are unfairly targeting golf when no one in their right mind wants a solar farm in the middle of their city.
I think you and I are for the same solutions, taking anger out on golf courses because they take up a lot of space is a bad argument when it comes to replacing them with utility grade power source. No one wants utility grade power sources where their community golf courses are. I’d argue I want more green space(not more golf courses) in my community. Each community is different and has different needs but getting rid of existing green spaces would be a last resort for me when it comes to replacing it with a utility grade power plant.

Pretty easy to win debates when you declare your opponents insane by nature of being your opponents.
You’re strawmaning your opponent so hard that you’re the one that’s coming off as dumb.
Its kinda like someone saying “maybe if they didn’t all have garages we could fit more houses in the same space” and you just keep replying “WHAT!?! You want me to park my car in my living room!?!?” over and over again.
“Sport”
What are you on about? Everybody who isn’t an embarrassed-temporarily-broke-millionaire wants this
Gosh darn fuck I’m annoyed by how stupid your comment is.
Golf: 20 acres for 3 people
Soccer: 50 meters for 10+
How do you live being this fucking ignorant?

Are you okay?

Almost 50% of energy is lost in transmission. Keeping renewable energy closer is good.
How do you think power/energy is sent to your home?

Who the hell wants a solar farm in the middle of their city? You? This is so dumb.
