Curling… a sport that’s usually only really on TV during the Olympics. My curiosity led me to search for information about the production and origin of the stones, and this is what I found:

The mountains in China’s Guizhou province look like the backdrop to an apocalypse: all the slopes as far as the eye can see are covered with solar panels.
The scale is such that a drone cannot fly over the entire array — it simply does not have enough battery power for such a long journey. It is this solar ‘wall’ that provides China with millions of kilowatts of electricity every month.
Really good.
Sure, it’s a good source of electricity. But it’s a shame for the beautiful landscape.
Will this ever become an Olympic sport? ![]()
