英国石油公司在墨西哥湾的石油泄漏已达到美国海岸。他们正忙着寻找修复方法。不得不承认是对石油的巨大需求导致了这一灾难性事件。我们必须取消对大型石油和其他化石燃料的依赖,以保护我们的后代及国家的未来。
使用太阳能热水平均每户每年可节省约75加仑石油。150万英亩煤炭开采土地和山区可产生5330亿千瓦电力, 而同样面积的太阳能电池板可产生10000亿千瓦。而资源是不会永远可依赖的。这些不可再生资源产生的有害毒素对我们的星球造成了永久性损害。太阳是天然资源,清洁,有效,而且取之不尽用之不竭。
美国拥有世界上最大的13个光伏能源项目中的9个。有了美国政府和民众的帮助,美国不仅可成为一个能源独立的国家,而且也能成为一个清洁能源的国家。每一步接近绿色的足迹都可减少我们的碳排量,并为未来提供一个干净的环境。
The BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has reached America’s shores. As they scramble to find ways to repair the damages there must be acceptance that the demands for oil lead to this catastrophic event. By removing our dependency on Big Oil and other fossil fuels we are preserving our nation for generations to come.
Using solar power for hot water saves about 75 gallons of oil per year per household.
533 billion kilowatts is produced from 1.5 million acres of coal mined land and mountains. 10,000 billion kilowatts of solar energy could be produced on an equivalent area using solar panels. The resources that we are currently reliant on will not last forever. The harmful toxins produced from collecting these non-renewable resources are causing permanent damage to our planet. The sun is natural resource that is clean and effective, and it will be available for thousands of years to come.
The United States has 9 of the world’s 13 largest photovoltaic energy projects. With the help of the US Government and American citizens our country can become not only an energy independent country but a clean energy independent country. Every step closer to becoming green reduces our carbon footprint and provides a clean environment for the future.
