zephyreks, 9 months ago Ah yes, because that was going so well before China entered the market. China just recently set up robust recycling mechanisms for solar and wind systems, years before the anticipated surge in recycling demand. Back in 2011 or whatever, China put rules in place regarding the production of silicon tetrachloride waste as well as energy consumption. New plants require Environmental Impact Assessments and older plants who couldn’t comply were shut down because China don’t give no shits about corporate lobbying. It’s not 2008 anymore, honey.
