I don't know about the others but I don't think I can really consider solar green, it needs a lot of silicon not only to make enough panels to have an impact but also needs the extraction of stuff for batteries too, still better than coal ig.

Oh no. It needs lots of sand.

What's the problem with silicon?

I still think in the long run it's worth it. Maybe not as good as wind I guess, but 100% better than gas/oil/coal etc...
