I get that solar POWER is infinite and clean, but the panels used to harvest it are anything but that, aren’t they? Aren’t solar panels just another way to pollute the earth because of their production and inevitable mass discarding?
Isn’t it the exact same problem for wind turbines? Won’t we eventually run out of material/resources to make those as well? Not to mention the noise pollution and the killing of avian life.
Could these alternative sources really be considered clean? If so, why?

Solar panels are a durable good that can last for decades vs. coal that is mined, burned and gone. Solar panels are metal and glass, and can be recycled. Same story for wind turbines… we can make them from recycled metal from old cars, ships, etc. and use them for decades.
