Solar the world

Source?

Why???? Because the cost of making the panels, let alone the ways to transport it all over the world is enormous, Even if there where lots of them all over the world. What about the cost of workers and maintenance. If this was our power source, what would happen if some part broke down. the whole world wouldn't have power. It would need immense global co-operation which we currently don't have. Also, which country has to give up land? Would they be the only ones in charge of it or would other countries have to send workers or money over? What about countries we are at war with, would they just not get power?
Yes there are so many different power options that we have, but at this point in time, most of then are not plausible. It would be amazing if we could all get power in ways like this but no government, let alone most of the worlds governments co-operating together, are going to spend money on something like this when it has a massive cost and doesn't really pay off for a long time

"The world, europe, and germany"
Welp, I guess Europe Germany aren't apart of this world anymore

You probably wouldn't want to put any critical infrastructure in that exact part of the world.

That looks like its way underestimated, the amount of electronics per household, electric appliances, electric vehicles, etc and multiply that by about 184 (aprox. Number of countries on earth). This seems way to low to me. (Esoecially when you think of all the new technology in the future, possibly requiring huge sources of energy)

The reason they haven't done this yet is because the air between the solar panels and the sky is so hot that anything, most specifically birds, that fly over it would literally burst into flames. It's dangerous for birds, and they have yet to find a way to avoid this.

Because it's a stem cell research lab.

we could cover 10 percent of nevada with solar panels and power the whole us

You would need to get that energy where it needs to go and running cables isn't really an option. As such, you can't just have one large area of solar panels for the whole world, but a field per city or something similar.

Not just the world, but also Europe and Germany.

thing is the amount of money required to do that is outstanding. too bad we humans cant buck up and pitch into the pot with a few thousand sq mi of free panles

See kids, this is why you should do your homework. So you don't grow up to be this ignorant.

This idea was first proposed in the early twentieth century. It worked very well and actually produced farmland in the middle of the desert. Fertile, green, fruitful farmland. It was funded by major governments like the UK, the US, and the country it was located in (I forget exactly where). It showed a great deal of promise. The big problem was, at that time, gasoline became unbelievably cheap and much easier to drill for than setting uo solar panels. The plant was shut down, and the entrepreneur died broke. No one wants to fund it because gasoline still reigns.
