Villas - Don't fool with Mother Nature. The carbon footprint of the manufacture, shipping, installation, and maintenance of solar panels, batteries, and wind turbines is enormous. Then years from now, when these items are replaced, we'll stumble on the landfill of these green items. Solar panels require toxic elements to manufacture. They also block the photosynthesis of plants inhibiting vegetation from absorbing CO2 and emitting O2. They emit heat from their black surface. Batteries require large open-pit mines to obtain the required lithium. Wind turbines kill hundreds of migratory birds.
