Solar is Practical & Economical
All over America and the world, people are integrating solar into their electricity and heating systems. Why?
Well, they get a big charge out of how much their solar electricity system saves them on monthly energy bills. They are also taking advantage of government incentives.
Homeowners find that using solar power to heat water for their pool saves them lots of money that would otherwise evaporate!
They are using solar thermal power to heat water for their homes, watching their heating bills go down while their hot water temperature stays the same.
Renewable energy in all forms is good for the future of the earth.
Due to some aggressive campaigning by governments and fossil fuel companies-- and to people's desire to live in denial-- there remains a belief among some people that things "aren't really so bad." But keep this in mind:
1. The Asian brown cloud is caused largely by the burning of fossil fuels.
2. Smog and all its attendant woes (including increased in allergy diagnoses, breathing disorders, cancer rates, etc.) is caused by fossil fuels.
3. Global warming is intensified by green house gases.
4. All the solar power you use is FREE, after the initial purchase cost of your solar system. Ten years from now, the solar energy you are collecting at your own home will still be FREE, and meanwhile prices for fossil fuels rise higher and higher.
