    This is replacing agricultural fields. Solar panels allow for a drastic increase in biodiversity over crop monocultures. It’s an improvement on the metrics you care about as well as in energy production.

      That’s a myth though. No numbers I know of suggest earths population and our demand of food is declining. What will happen is that the agricultural land replaced with a solarfarm is going to be set up somewhere else at the cost of nature.
