High prices were neccessary to get the industry started.

You could say exactly the same about the nuclear power industry -
the
one that supplies us with cheap, reliable, safe energy.

Unsafe and polluting.

What about the radioactive waste problem from wind turbines then
harry?
Every time you dig up neodinium to make the generators magnets, you
also
get waste pile of thorium...

Neodymium is used for all manner of things, from PM motors to colouring
glass to fertilizer.

So what do you propose doing with the thorium harry?


Dunno. I haven't thought about it.
It will all depends on the mining process and how the neodymium/thorium
is
separated out.
But neodymium is not actually neccesary for wind turbines.

seems they use it though...

What about tellurium for the solar panels - same problem...

What about Gallium in semi-conductors?
All mining causes pollution.
Some is exceptionally polluting.
