As a team, we investigated solar panels and found out that whilst it does produce energy that won’t pollute the air, the process and materials used to make the panels are in fact harmful to the environment. With some research done, we were able to find some solutions such as substituting the harmful materials for materials that are more environment friendly, investing into equipment that can help dispose of the waste properly and even possibly having the Government fund a group that can help monitor and find alternatives for the harmful materials used to produce solar panels.
