Solar Photovoltaic Roof

Stella Said:

The Vatican wants to protect the Earth - Going Solar is now Christian/I think it's great what do you think?

We Answered:

I think it's fantastic that more people are waking up and realizing what kind of danger our earth is in if we don't start acting more responsibly. I only hope that more large institutions, and even governments, will recognize the potential in the Pope's actions and follow suit. Nothing bad can come of trying to conserve our natural resources.

Paula Said:

How can this benefit the environment?

We Answered:

cool idea, and why not fill the desert lands with photovoltaic cells to feed entire cities with power..
well it takes a lot of man hand work (not robots) to make solar cells and a lot of energy and heat (since we will need to melt silicone and purify it to make our cells). also the photovoltaic cells are not very efficient i heard the best ones have a maximum efficiency of 18~20 % (and are expensive).
it would be a good idea if super markets put windows on their roofs to allow direct sun light to brighten their markets
