Countries around the world use more land for golf courses than wind or solar energy, according to a new study published in the journal Environmental Research Communications.
Sure but that’s a local issue, many communities have parks and golf courses… This article is arguing to remove golf courses in favor of solar or wind farms because they use a lot of space. It doesn’t even examine the impacts of putting a utility grade power farm in the middle of a community because the argument would breakdown immediately.
Parks and golf courses are all world of difference lol.
Parka have tons of trees, different species of geasses big and small, some open areas, playground for kids, small fields for football or something. Open to the public, 3rd spaces for kids and teens, people exercising and running and walking through it.
Golf courses you have to pay to get in, not open to the public, a monoculture of imported grass, maybe some trees on the edges or between holes, kids and teens are not allowed, uses more space that the community isn’t allowed in, etc…
