Title: Why Solar in India?
Topic: Why Solar in India?
Discussed by Christopher Harris
with Unhyphenated America (www.unhyphenatedamerica.org)

India has 306.2 million people without electricity and 705 million people who rely on wood and biomass for cooking. In response, India has built a new very, very expensive solar power plant.

Christopher Harris has some thoughts about this situation and why he believes the outrageously expensive new solar power plant is a complete waste of money.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Will this new solar powered plant “really” benefit the people of India?

Who is paying for the solar power plant?

Why are the environmentalists pushing third-world countries to use alternative fuel sources when coal or natural gas are so much cheaper and more available?
