Energy Problem--Use Green Energy Solutions


By Jozel Max

The impact that pollution has on the environment is not a secret. This tragedy needs to be discussed at every dinner table on a daily basis. Family's can come up with ways to conserve energy at home or even better find ways to create and use green energy solutions. These solutions are available to every person that really wants to make a positive impact on the current pollution problem.

Water is the most important basic of living creatures. Without water nothing will live, including trees, animals, plants, et cetera. That is why it is not a wise choice to use water for automobiles or heat unless it is the water that is cleaned from the ocean. If the water were taken out of the ocean and heated to a boiling point for a certain amount of time the water will be considered distilled, and very drinkable, which can be used to flush out all the contaminations already caused by pollution, in current fresh water supplies.

Heating is one of the leading causes of deadly toxic pollution being released into the air. The exhaust from forced air furnaces that burn kerosene, oil, or diesel fuels release a high amount of carbon which is what adds fuel to the global warming fire. One green energy solution to eco friendly heating is by using the sun. The sun can provide enough heat all year around to heat any size building.

Next on the list is electricity. Electricity is created currently by manmade functional operations such as nuclear power which gets extremely hot and creates a waste product that has been kept in storage units since the first use. Not only does nuclear power create a non-disposable waste, but it adds heat making the overall temperature even higher. These heat generating devices are no good when the ultimate goal is to lower the temperature of the Earth.

Farming is one of the hardest working careers in the world. Most farmers do not get a whole lot of help from governmental agencies, however there are funds set aside just for the installing and operation of green energy solutions such as windmills. In some areas wind mills have existed for a long period of time, and are still the main source of electricity.

Any plastic materials should be recycled. Burning plastic will create more toxins than what is already present, and plastic is in no way bio degradable. There are more and more consumer goods being made from plastic, therefore it needs to be recycled.

Pesticides play a big role on the pollution set. People should resort to the old fashioned way of pulling weeds or killing bugs. Pesticides filter into the ground and reach underground water supplies creating bad water. Also the food produced by the use of pesticides will cause cancer.

Green energy solutions are numerous and need applied right now to stop global warming from gaining anymore strength. Global warming has already gained the strength to begin melting glaciers. Think about that.
