Why don't local councils, even central government, insist that large corporations and multi nationals who build big supermarkets, out-of-town shopping centres and delivery warehouses insist that they include solar panels for renewable energy for the community they serve?

A radical idea that would no doubt be dismissed as 'anti-business' by many.

The problem local authorities have (in particular Barnet Plc) is that they have sold most of their assets off to private companies. Parks and green spaces are about all they've got these days.
