It’s a vibe seeing solar panels cover those iconic Southern China valleys
The hill in the photo looks ugly, tbh. Still, much better (and livelier) than the landscape after oilsands or brown coal extraction.
Preferably, most grid-connected solar panels would be on buildings, deserts, and postindustrial land. But in the face of the climate catastrophe, the South China hills are also fine.
I mean - one thing ugly, and the other thing is that this land could be arable or a nature reserve.
The same is true of oil fields but they won’t even let you see pictures of that.
