I am quite furious at a local supermarket installing sun-shades over their parkinglot and it is not solar panels but rather a really stupid looking permanent tent structure that couldn’t even be retrofitted with solar-panels. This is so stupid that I decided to boycott them over this alone.

Na, these ones are super strong and probably cost more than a solar panel installation would have, especially if you factor in the electricity it produces over time. It’s just silly and probably decided for by some boomer who drives an SUV.
