>>1654385Yes I know. I tried to make a point, that saying " buhuhu I don't want children because the world is doomed" leads always to personal doom, regardless of what the future brings.
>>1654790BULLSHIT mate. Solar modules are fully enclosed in their housing. Unless the glass/seal/frame isdamaged, there is no way for water to enter.
Even then, you only might talk about poly/thinfilmmodules, because monos don't contain cadmium telluride etc.
In fact, Cadmium itself is a waste product in the production of zinc.
Also if we dive deeper into chemistry:
cadmium telluride is an extremly stable salt and a lot less toxic than pure cadmium.
If the solar modules are recycled properly after their 40+ years of use, like we do it in Germany, there is literally no contamination.
