I would like to add that Solarpower plants will also REDUCE the 
effects of global warming Civ2. If I remember correctly in Civ2 
global warming is calculated on the basis of polluted tiles. One solar 
powerplant will neutralize one half of a polluted field. So if there 
are 7 polluted tiles within your border and you have 4 solar plants 
(4*0,5=2) the total pollution effect towards global warming will be 
reduced to (7-2) =5
