How many trees were killed to build it?
(I'm being a bit snarky, but this is a problem I have with so many suggestions with how to be ecological. Solar power is great, unlimited, and requires plastic and oil products to build up. We don't seem to be able to provide sustainable power without resorting to unsustainable means to provide it.)

I can appreciate that, but loggers use that as an excuse to log old growth trees. We’ve simply never been good at preserving the planet since we invented machines.
@Jeber Article says they use a special spruce that grows faster than logging.
