   As if D Trump ever cared about whales.   
      
   Meanwhile, it appears that solar panel farms are a bonanza to the   
   owner: not only can they lease the land for the panels, they can lease   
   it again for grazing. Cows and sheep, apparently, have no problems and   
   may even prefer being under the panels. (Warning: this is from an   
   eco-friendly news service and may be a wee bit biased.)
