Why We Promote GO GREENScience journals, media outlets and current events attempt to draw attention to what some may call the buzz-word of the new millennium: global warming. Some might argue that global warming is the single most pressing issue we face in the world today and that if we don't do something to change our lifestyle now, we will reach a point of "no return." Even though the issue is debatable among the most renowned names in the research field, the fact of the matter is our earth is not impermeable to our existence. Mother earth stands alone against the 6.6 billion people that inhabit her land. With those numbers what we do to help can make a difference, and that's why Solar Source Central has chosen to help promote a GO GREEN attitude! Our wide selection of solar lights will help to take that first step toward helping to preserve the earth's resources. Using solar lights in your garden decor as your alternative energy source is as responsible as it is easy. Shop our solar garden decor and solar lights and find ways to keep your outside landscape lighting cost effective and eco-friendly!
Improve Your Solar Smarts1. The Earth receives more power from the sun than it uses in a whole year! 2. Using solar energy to supply a million homes with energy would reduce CO2 emissions by 4.3 million tons per year, the equivalent of removing 850,000 cars from the road. 3. Solar lights are extremely interesting because they are almost like mini-satellites. They generate and store their own power during the day and then release it at night. This is just like a satellite that stores solar energy while it is on the sunny side of the planet and then uses that energy when it's on the dark side. 4. More than 10,000 homes in the United States are powered entirely by solar energy. 5. “Solar” is the Latin word for “sun” – and it’s a powerful source of energy. In fact, the sunlight that shines on the Earth in just one hour could meet world energy demand for an entire year! 6. In the 1830s, explorer John Herschel used a solar collector to cook food during an adventure in Africa. 7. Today less than 0.1% of our heating, transportation and power energy comes from direct sunlight although it is now possible to meet all our energy needs with this simple, renewable resource.
