Great Green Cities is pursuing an initiative to have enough solar and wind installations within the city of Beverly, MA to meet the city's electricity demand, and provide free information and guidance to other cities so they can do it too. This is being accomplished through government, business and community collaboration. Find out how at http://www.greatgreencities.org/.
hello everyone, right at the moment I am backpacking my way across new zealand, I can with the month build a machine which does not need any type of fuel to generate electricity, it is a simple idea which when looked upon will make you think, why didnt I think of that, well it has taken me 2 years of thought to come up with it, but i want financial backers to get it off the ground, it is not solar but it works none stop and can generate enough electricity to power every mega city in the planet, it also will reduce the cost of electricty all over the world, I know there is someone out there who will back this idea and make a difference to help cutout carbon emisions for good. sounds impossible, i thought so for a long time but only in the last 2 months have i got it to work and it is real and it is not out there at the moment, please e-mail me if you can help.
Contactamos un punto de recolección de la ONG ECOVOLTA en la Ciudad Autónoma de Bs As y donamos un tablon de madera para que con nuestras PILAS agotadas, (que fueron juntadas y guardadas durante 16 años!) sean RECICLADAS y transformadas en un ECOBANCO para una escuela.
Ademas adquirimos BATERIAS RECARGABLES y un CARGADOR para ahorrar y contaminar menos en el presente.
My boyfriend and I have decided that we need to start doing more NOW. So, three nights a week we turn off all the lights, tv, etc. and enjoy eachothers company. We cook our food by BBQ or just a eat raw meals. Then we read or play games by candle light. This is just a start, we are aiming for 6 nights a week, saving one night for new knowledge and media that will aid us in spreading this change. Imagine if everybody in your town or city started using 1/2 as much energy in thier homes NOW by doing this in the evenings. It would make an incredible difference. Not only in our carbon footprint but also in the quality of our lives. Our families would be closer, we would know eachother better, and to be able to entertain ourselves is a quality that our children are loosing very fast.
Because some financial problems we (me and my parents) can't make this happen this year, but next year, when everything comes back to normal, i'll change the fuel of my car to ethanol, yeah, BRAZILIAN ETHANOL! I know his engine wasn't build to use ethanol, but we don't have enough money to buy a light flex-fuel low cc car... So... My car already is light and low cc, so all i have to do is change his fuel! (Ford Ka 1.0L) 65hp.
I do not own a car so I cycle/walk/use public transport where necessary. I buy my electricity from Good Energy. I recycle card, paper, glass, cans, foil, plastic bottles, Tetrapaks, textiles and compost all my green waste in a wormery.
I'm about 3 weeks out from having a working vehical that runs on a fuel made by water. I already have gotten my lawn mower to run off of the sytem now we're building the electrical system for a car. soon we will be sending out all of our research.
