I like this:The total solar energy absorbed by Earth's atmosphere, oceans and land masses is approximately 3,850,000 exajoules (EJ) per year. In 2002, this was more energy in one hour than the world used in one year.
@hisah - I like that.Its going to play well with the buy local movement.
@all - Anyone with development in recycling technology. That's another boom in the making.
You can recycle used car wheels and apply them in the construction of roads which are durable and long lasting.
Another idea is by collecting all the used computers/laptops and organize them to create your own internet, maybe Afrinet or something along those lines.
Am going to find the link and post it here pretty soon my friend.
Thanx.Keep it coming.I like recycling because its sustainable.
Got something interesting.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_street_lightBBC News - Mogadishu's first solar-powered street lamps 1. Hydrogen gas for powering up the streets, lamps in your house, cars, etc.
2. Use concentrated wine from grapes to make batteries.
3. Use of worms (can't remember what types of worms) as manure instead of fertilizers for farming.
4. Biofuels: For those who have range rovers and old mercedez benz, you should pat yourself on the back because you are lucky. Just convert the engine to start consuming biofuels and you'll never pay for gas anymore.
5. You see those old GOK range rover engines?? Their engines can be used to drilling wells/boreholes instead of paying a mill plus.
6. Old is gold.
Old cars are the best for your information. Made out of metal (engine) unlike the modern ones (from 1988 going forward: rubbish), they hardly break down and if they do, its easy to fix as compared to these modern cars whereby everything is electrical.
Example: Check engine light - What do you have to remove/install so as to get rid of the light?? Now try that with a car that was manufactured prior to 1988.
Proof: GOK range rovers still cruising the streets of Nairobi while your new jalopy keeps breaking down at Jogoo House.
Many more to come.
Energy.
