Fossil Fuel Versus Solar

I am writing this view on Fossil versus Solar to look at the way I see the Electrical Power for our homes and communities going toward. The Solar industry is a fast growing sector that everybody needs to bear witness to, since it will change all our lives as we now see it. Keep watch, since it will happen sooner than anybody will realize.

First let's take a look at the Coal industry. We us Coal for a lot of things we use each and every day, things like making plastics, melting or heating steel or iron, heating homes and the burners in electrical plants. The list goes on and on. Did you know that coal is used in air filters to take out deadly gases that can hurt us? When coal is burned it can hurt us just as bad as the gases that harm us. Coal is not a renewable fuel supply and it is said to have only 30 or so years of supply left.

We all take for granted that our fuel supplies like oil, coal or gas will last for the rest of our lives. I look at it a different way. I think we all need to look at what the environment is going thru either by our hands or something natural. We all need to take action now for earth and our survival. We may have thirty years or more of oil and coal to use, but will our lungs and skin be able to handle it and the environmental impact could cause global warming to cross the threshold that we do not even know what that is yet! We may have already hit the point of no return.

There are a lot of things that we can do to help mother earth possibly heal from the wounds that we have caused. Let's look at one that would help short and long term. Solar energy is the energy the sun puts out each and every day and is considered to be a fuel source that will be there till the end of time as earth will know it. The Sun puts out enough energy to cover all out energy needs ten times over every day and then some.
