This thread is interesting.... Bottom line in my mind is the following:

Solar can't meet all our power needs currently and probably not in my lifetime. Why because storage is a problem... What Solar can do is help the power grid. When these arrays can be put up in locations where it doesn't impact society, and the land is likely to be used for nothing else, I say why not. Yes they aren't a sight everyone wants to see in the morning, so you leave a wooded buffer around them...It is better then doing nothing at all, to reduce fosil fuel plants...

The thing is just like the wind farms people are opposed to change... but change eventually becomes the norm and you get used to it.
