Most of us today are very much aware of the damage that is being done to the earth. We have watched Al Gore’s film where he clearly shows the world what is happening to the polar ice caps and what we have to look forward to in the future if we continue on this destructive path of reckless behaviour. We are depleting the earth and damaging our environment due to our dependence on fuel for running our cars and for heating and cooling our homes.

Electricity and utility costs have almost gotten the better of all of us. Each month it seems as though the rates are going higher and higher. If our satellite bill is too high, we can make adjustments to our package and get a smaller one that’s more affordable. If we’re using too much fuel in our car, we can car pool or consolidate our trips to save gas. Our utility bills can only be cut back so much, especially when they keep going up. A solution that’s been very helpful and economical for many is switching to solar power. |
