Global warming kids
June 24th, 2009
“Our children are our nation’s future”. This common adage speaks the importance of the children’s awareness on issues like global warming. Their involvement will not only help them in the future but will help contribute to the fight against global warming in our present day by raising their voice, activity awareness, community involvement, and environmental concern. Our children’s voice should be one of the good influence for us adults.
Involving your children in activities such as those facilitated by Climate Change Education. Org will increase their awareness on the issue. This could be a good training for them to be a responsible citizen even in their delicate age. Scientists, educators and concerned organization have really taken part in imparting the worldwide concern to all ages. For example, the Climate Change Education. Org facilitated an activity where the child is encouraged to be a space science engineer. He/she will be given a chance to design a space that may enable them to go to the nearby planets. This activity will give them surprise discoveries, including finding the greenhouse effect on the specified planet that will demonstrate such effect. Imaginatively, when they return to earth, they will find that both natural and human greenhouse effects are made. Their scientific discoveries will enable them to save the planet in their own understanding. The activities will also help them discover the temperatures of the planets and how each atmosphere affects them. Aside from this they will be able to analyze atmospheric samples and see models that show how greenhouse gases work. This fun ways of discovering encourage the kids to get more discoveries on how the climate changes. Other activities also promote concern to our environment by involving them in planting trees and recycling products.
Incorporating the facts on global warming to kid’s sites that introduced colorful information about global warming is also helpful for research and awareness of kids. Aside from mere information to the issue, practical solutions on how the kids can personally stop global warming is specified in this sites. This is a very helpful initiative from educators and teachers as well as children’s organization who impart concerns to the “next generation” in a fun and creative way. Most of all, it is important that adults give the best example in showing how global warming can be minimized or stopped. Without these proper examples, children may think that the problem is not at all serious.
This is how gorgeous solar power can be
June 24th, 2009
There are some misguided souls who believe that clean roof-lines are more important than sustainable power generation. But we’d all be silly to think that someday we won’t have both. And, if you have enough money, that someday could be today.
SRS Energy has developed roofing tiles that mimic Tuscan terracotta roofing tiles but contain amorphous silicon solar cells produced by Uni-Solar. The solar tiles are extremely durable, work in a variety of temperature ranges, and link in specifically with tiles from US Tile. The result is a stunning, seamless blend of dark solar tiles and traditionally colored clay tiles.
The solar tiles generate a peak of 500 watts per 100 square feet. So you’ll be getting less power for more money than if you installed a traditional south-facing, roof-mounted panel, but incorporating this technology so elegantly into the design of the building with be worth a lot of money to a lot of people.

Nissan will open electric car factory in U.S.

Nissan will build its electric car — maybe an electric version of the recently hyped Cube? — in the U.S., bringing an undisclosed number of green jobs to Smyrna, Tenn., according to Reuters.
Together with an affiliated NEC lithium-ion battery manufacturing plant, Nissan will invest as much as $1 billion in the new electric cars — which it plans to pump out by 2012 (as many as 100,000 per year).
Whatever happens, the new advertising campaign for the little white Cube as a portable device is brilliant. The 2009 Cube gets 29 mpg (automatic; the manual is rated only for 26 mpg). That leaves it behind the 14 cars and SUVs that get better than 30 mpg, but squarely in line with other hip new micro cars promising to remake the American road.
