It has been a while, sorry about that. Been busy studying and working out what I want to do with my life.
I always felt that if you are not going forward, you are going backwards.
That is part of the reason I decided to do some study this year and further my education. I am studying Renewable Energy Technology at the Southern Institute of Technology. There are a couple of great things about this course; firstly, it is free to NZ residents as SIT have the Zero Fees scheme, and secondly I can do it via correspondence meaning I don’t have to freeze living in Invercargill. Instead I still freeze but get to stay at home. 🙂
I have learnt some very interesting things so far on this course, mainly to do with power from Nature. IE the Sun’s energy, Wind power, Tidal power, etc.
Did you know that if just 1.3% of the earths deserts had Solar Panels installed they would produce enough electricity to supply all of the worlds current energy requirements! How cool is that? Some people think they look ugly but I actually quite like a huge array of solar panels laid out perfectly, looks quite spectacular. And a good way to utilize otherwise unusable land. I think it shows how far mankind has come. What do you think?
Alternatively I’m sure that if every house on earth had a couple of good solar panels on its roof along with good insulation and efficient lighting then that would achieve a similar outcome. And if these guys can do it then I’m sure we can.
They don’t have to be on our houses. Let’s get creative.
We just have to harness Nature’s awesome (renewable) power. Thank you Nature
