David Faiman has 30 years of research in the solar field and has come up with a design that will make solar energy competitive. Actually not only competitive, but beyond moronic to not start switching over from coal fired energy.
I was scanning the YouTube eco videos and ran across a recently uploaded demonstration video showing Nanosolar’s progress in the solar industry. I was hoping to find some specs on their website, but couldn’t so we will just have to continue to be hopeful.
An experimental pocket-sized radio receiver, powered by energy from the sun, weighs only 10 ounces and will work more than eight months in total darkness without recharging. Developed by General Electric, the set uses a miniature storage battery, four transistors, and seven solar cells.
Why does it seem so common sense to me? I am not a big fan, of even the thoughts, of a food that has been altered at the sub-molecular level, and I understand that a subsidized educational system can severely handicap our learning ability… but damn people. It is more than obvious that profit and [...]
I wanted to post about baby safety because, well: 1) Babies are obviously 1st priority and 2) one of my green blogger friends (The Accidental Environmentalist) is having a baby soon and I want to offer as much information as I can to support a healthy environment for the new one.
Is it not just unfathomable that an entire area, densely populated, has to beg a greedy few to not increase pollution and dumping into their natural water source?

As these proponents of big oil fluff and spin a heartless justification and trivialization of why their company growth is more important than their costumers health and well being, I am thinking to myself “how can these people look another human being in the eye and not blush blood red?”
I recently received an email containing a link that I feel is very relevant and worth sharing.Eredux.com, on the surface, has an interactive map that shows your state’s carbon score along with carbon emissions per person. But, for detailed demographic data and information on energy consumption, carbon emissions in your area, contamination levels, local gas prices and so forth just click on a state and fill in your zip code.
I was browsing the mainstream news channels and came across a report on compact fluorescent bulbs containing mercury. And although I was aware of that, to listen to the journalist explain it would have you immediately switch back to the less efficient incandescent bulbs. Even companies marketing CF bulbs were targeted by the fearful report as if they were part of a conspiracy to fill the world with mercury.
