Here Comes The Sun!

I think the most powerful reason to consider investing in solar energy is in the knowledge that I am doing my bit to save the world!  I am helping to clean the planet, and in doing so I feel I am doing my bit in putting a stop to the damage that using fossil fuels is creating!
The Sun will be around for another 5 billion years, it is free, it is sustainable and it is the most natural of all our alternative energy sources.
We may be forgiven for thinking that it is far too expensive to even consider. Well, I am pleased to say that governments the world over are offering incentives to house holds to install, and as with any relatively new technology, it is becoming more and more within our reach.  It needs to, we are all becoming aware of the catastrophic effects of this continued use of gas oil and coal is producing.  We must look up because our salvation is through that big yellow ball of fire in the sky! ( please have a look at the earlier post entitled 'The World Belongs To Us All', click on the link to the film and you will be shown all the proof you need  that we are in a 'do or die' situation)
So other than the incentives that are being offered what other reasons do we need to consider solar panels? Well they require very little maintenance, just an annual check up but as most companies offer a 30 year guarantee, this is just for peace of mind. Solar panels have no moving parts and are very durable.  They are also recyclable, so in 30 years or so when you upgrade you will be safe in the knowledge that they will be removed and broken down and used as something else.  They are a very low pollution item both in their manufacture and usage.
So Apart from the most important factor, saving the earth, the energy produced is free, and I for one cant think of any thing more satisfying!
