Environment Power

Solar power is all the rage today and is rapidly becoming one of the major sources of electricity generation. But is there a downside to this form of power? Solar Power's Dirty Little Secret discusses a side of solar power that is never mentioned in mainstream media.

Fоr a lоng timе sоlаr power wаѕ оnlу identified as thе соnvеrѕiоn оf ѕun light to to electricity. Whilе thiѕ is not inассurаtе, mоѕt оf uѕ do nоt know thаt thе еnеrgу harvested muѕt first be соnvеrtеd tо еlесtriсаl еnеrgу tо bе аblе tо produce generally funсtiоnаl electricity. Thе conversion iѕ mаdе роѕѕiblе thrоugh thе photovoltaic or PV, a mеthоd that uses semiconductors tо соnvеrt thе ѕun'ѕ rаdiаtiоn to еlесtriсаl еnеrgу.

Sterilizing water is a big job. Solar electric (PV) powered UV water sterilizers are an effective way to sterilize your water from local polluted sources, even brackish water, with safety, reliability, and no fuel-costs. Water found in nature is full of pathogens which can cause disease and illness. Ultra-violet (UV) sterilizers kill 99.99% of all dangerous pathogens and render your water potable and safe to drink.

If geologist, adventurer, and risk-prone eccentric John Lane can prove the existence of the elusive tree kangaroo on the remote Pacific island of New Britain, he just might be able to save one of the last truly wild endangered forests on Earth. But first he and his ragtag expedition party - college students, adventure-seeking biologists, disinterested local teenagers - will have to find the rare animal. Award-winning writer Matthew Power plunges into one of the world's most foreboding jungles alongside Lane. It is a quest that's equal parts noble, dangerous, and wacky, in a place that's truly off the map.

2020년 코로나 19라는 초유의 사태로, 일찍이 경험해 보지 못한 일들이 잇달아 일어나고 있다. 모든 것이 그 이전과는 다른, 우리가 경험해보지 못한 '달라진 세계'에 대한 전망과 담론장이 폭발하고 있다. 하지만 그런 담론의 범람 속에서 고민의 '방향'을 함께 질문하려는 시도가 드문 것이 사실이다.
