Original Note:
Most of the solar panel is recyclable, there are parts that are not recyclable and some MAY contain toxic metals like lead and cadmium. For a rooftop solar system with a 30-year life CO2 emissions are nearly 12 times lower than natural gas and 20 times lower than coal. https://www.epa.gov/hw/solar-panel-recycling#:~:text=Recycling%20Overview&text=Many%20of%20these%20components%20can,wire%2C%20and%20plastic%20junction%20box. https://www.solar.com/learn/what-is-the-carbon-footprint-of-solar-panels/
