Solar farms are stepping up their game, and it’s not just about producing clean energy.
These sun-soaking powerhouses are now doubling as havens for wildlife, offering a ray of hope in the fight against biodiversity loss, according to The New York Times.
Across the United States, innovative solar projects are transforming barren fields into thriving ecosystems.
