Only renewable power, claim environmentalists, can enable us to maintain our current lifestyles without destroying the world. Tired of waiting for government action, states like California are taking the lead. In setting their own ambitious renewable energy targets, they’re forcing industries to make the switch. But countries like Australia remain firmly wedded to coal. Is renewable energy capable of meeting the needs of a modern economy? We investigate.

Ok so here comes the summer somewhere in the world, and with that on go all the air cons that contribute to our carbon footprint and in no way contributes to transforming our cities in sustainable empires. What good would one or two photovoltaic electric panels built from kits do for you, you may ask? Well, even if the panels you set up are not quite large enough in scale to take you completely off the power grid, they will surely help nonetheless. Powering even just a couple of lights and appliances with free, renewable solar energy is going to help both your power bill and the environment in the long run. This is precisely why more and more people are becoming interested in learning how to build your own solar panels. In comparison to premade sheets, these kits are less expensive and help to reduce the necessary initial outlay for the setups. Hence, they can more easily pay back their own costs, and you will start saving money faster. Even novices can take advantage of these packages since they are designed to be not too difficult to put together. Assembly of a panel from a certain package is a fairly short project that should not take more than a day or two, at the most. This also means that you can start using your arrangement to power your devices quickly enough, even though you have to build it yourself. This makes these kits a really feasible alternative to more expensive ready-made systems. Learning how to build your own solar panels is definitely a cost-effective …

PSE’s voluntary Carbon Balance Program helps natural gas customers reduce their carbon footprint by purchasing carbon offset blocks from local projects that work to reduce or capture greenhouse gases. While natural gas is the cleanest-burning fossil fuel, there are still greenhouse gas emissions associated with burning the gas, primarily carbon dioxide. The carbon offsets for PSE’s Carbon Balance Program are sourced from a family farm located in Outlook, Wash., called George DeRuyter and Sons Dairy. PSE purchases the dairy’s carbon offsets through the Bonneville Environmental Foundation on behalf of Carbon Balance Program participants. PSE works with BEF to make certain that carbon offsets purchased help fund new renewable energy or other emission reduction projects that would not otherwise happen. For more information, visit www.bef.org To participate, residential customers can purchase carbon offset blocks at each, added to your monthly natural gas bill. One block is equivalent to removing 400 pounds of carbon dioxide from the environment. The average residential customer can make their natural gas carbon neutral for a month. Commercial and industrial customers can also participate with a minimum purchase of two blocks, or a month. Because natural gas usage varies greatly between individual commercial and industrial customers, PSE will work directly with these groups to help determine their annual gas usage, and the number of blocks needed to achieve a 100 …
