Reasons to go Solar



As the earth reels from the effects of global warming, scientists are scrambling with ways to completely shift from fossil fuel to a more sustainable and earth friendly alternative.  So here are the reasons as to why Solar is the best alternative to man’s seemingly inexhaustible demands for more energy.

Eco Consciousness Starts From Home



I firmly believe that our ethics was heavily molded in our childhood years. These were the years when we have no idea how to act in this crazy, heavily-laden with issues world so we just took after our supposedly role models i.e adults around us. It’s funny how hard we deny our caregivers’ characteristics—even despise at times—and yet be able to carry them to our own adulthood. It’s because these characteristics are deeply embedded in our own subconscious minds that if reflex has it, it will certainly come out unabashed.

It was also said that the earliest you can train your child of certain things, the better he or she will absorb the things you want them to perceive. This may be true and with this I also hope the next generation to be more eco conscious than the generation we are living right now since together with us, our kids are the ones experiencing the many diverse effects of climate change, global warming and other eco-related issues.
