Green Energy
Green Energy
Much of the electricity in the US today is produced from non-renewable resources. As we continue to
deplete the earth of these and other resources, available supply is reduced, while total population
and the demand for more resources continue to rise. This predicament inevitably causes a corresponding
increase in the financial and environmental costs of the traditional means of energy production, conversion,
distribution and storage, which naturally necessitates the direct use of
renewable energy sources instead. Once you get
past the middle man, the true supplier of every natural resource is always nature.
Nature supplies us with everything we need to survive and live in comfort, and although we are all
subject to the laws of nature whether we choose to be or not, we can still make the choice not to pay
for our dependence on, and thereby subjection to man for our energy needs. We can bypass the middle
man, go straight to the source (i.e., nature) and reduce or even eliminate the energy bill if we but become
more self-sufficient. Energy conservation
and earth friendly, homemade power pays for itself in the end, while at the same time helping to reduce
negative environmental impacts we have on our planet, and promoting energy independence.
