Even after this live earth concert, none of the young folks here know about solar?
Answer:
Low income folks have totally been forgotten by the Eco Troopers who pontificate about how "every one else" needs to go green by running out and buying a $30,000 Prius or spending $10,000 on a home solar system, which you will also want to run your A/C after sunset. Figure about $1,000 for each 100 square feet of trailer you want to keep cool.
For $3,000 you can buy a wind generator that will run after sunset that might actually power a window unit, I saw one on actor Ed Begley Jr.s home last week.
For now I suggest what I do myself, and thats to go ahead and buy expensive florescent light bulbs, because they really do use less electricity and at the same time don't heat up the house. If its at all possible look into adding insulation a little at a time as you can afford it. I doubt if manufactured trailers include any more than a bare minimum of insulation to keep the cost down. Good luck.
Ok if u succeed and eliminate all CO2 would that satisfy U. And after that all plants would die and the earth would look like Mars. The plants need CO2 as much as U need oxygen.
Solar photovoltaic cells are a very expensive way to produce elctricity. They are essentially a status symbol for the wealthy. They are not a solution for low income people.
The cost of production of electricity from solar photovoltaic cells is far more than the most expensive rates from the most expensive utility in the world.
Electricity produced by windpower has a cost of production that is less than one tenth the cost of electricity that is produced by solar voltaic cells.
Windpower is the way to go for low income people.
I don't remember them giving information on solar energy at the 'Live Concert', perhaps you should do a google search and not blame Live Concert for your lack of knowledge.
The concert did just what they wanted it to do. It made you ask questions. It made you notice there is a thing called Renewable Energy. And it made you notice there is a problem that needs to be fixed so our offspring will have a place to live and food to eat.
Do a yahoo or google search for (solar electric backup power). You will find information on both grid tied solar electric systems and with backup power.
Do the same using (solar water) or (solar heater)
