    There was a study done in LA where if you covered just the parking lots with solar you could provide power for the entire city (if storage was available obviously)

    That’s really more of an indictment on LA having too much parking than anything else.

    Put the solar panels on the roofs. Replace the worthless parking lots with more productive buildings. And, obviously, quit forcing everybody to drive everywhere.

      I agree but I feel that is even more aspirational than renewable energy.

      Personally I want high speed rail, commuter rail, trams, and bike infrastructure but I’ll probably be dead by the time any of that happens if it does at all.
