The main thing thats gets me about solar cells in games though is it the
rock + heat + silicon > black box > solar cell (ta da!)
I mean I know there's the gameplay element but really? You basically making computer chip! electronics grade silicon is the raw material. Thats really not something you make in your shed (or outside a cleanroom really).
Summary: could surviving mars have a go at trying to curb this trend? it does involve some interesting science + processes.
NB: Also reminded of a solution given (in phys forum) of civilisations giving up nuclear technology as an answer to the Fermi paradox. Not for this forum but good read.
