Changing our World with Solar Panals
Hey all. My name is Mike, this is my first post.
I’d like to talk a bit about green energy. Sustainable energy is defined by Wikipedia as “the provision of energy such that it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs” When I first that definition, I was really moved. The point of this is really to be able to meet our own needs without screwing up the world for our children. If you’re like me, then your children are more important to you than anything, so that thought really impacted me.
The wonderful world around us provides all kinds of energy that we can use to meet out daily needs– biofuels, ocean thermal energy, tidal and wave energy, hydrogen, and many others. There are only two, however that we can really use in our daily routine- solar panels and wind turbines. When you look around, no matter where you look, you’ll probably discover a source of untapped energy, sun shining on a rooftop or the wind whipping around a tall building.
We only need to tap all of these different sources of energy. That is the goal of green energy- it is the way of the future. Not only will using green energy help sustain the world for our children and grandchildren, but it will also help stabilize our economy and minimize our need to support foreign dictatorships (by purchasing oil from them). When the cost is so minimal- installing residential solar panels or home wind generators, I don’t see how we can pass up the opportunity.
