“the tech isn’t there yet”

tell them to get a solar quote for their home and compare it to their power bill. Very likely the monthly solar payments will be lower even with financing.

“you can’t recycle panels or turbine blades”

firstly, that's not true, we are constantly improving our ability to recycle. Anyway, you sure as hell can't recycle coal or natural gas so that's a double standard.

“panels and turbine blades don’t last worth a damn”

they last a hell of a lot longer than fossil fuels do.
