Okay, but put the panels on rooftops, not over that nice greenery.

The greenery may be perfectly fine with it. A lot of plants prefer shade, though of course that’s so they can still grow while shaded by trees.

You might say “put in a forest”, and I’d agree, but if that’s not going to happen then we might as well have the solar panels.
