In recent years we have seen more tornadoes and devastating hurricanes, more forest fires, and heavy rain leading to floods: these extreme weather conditions are likely due to climate change, whether it is believed to be man-made or ‘natural’. Scientists predicted extremes in weather as global warming continues. Whatever the cause, the increase of green house gases from factories contributes to this warming. This is in addition to pollutants dumped in rivers and lakes that affect the ecosystem and ultimately affects us. Car emissions pollute air in big cities. Supplies of mineral resources are running out. These problems are of concern to all humanity. There are even theories that earth quakes have increased in frequency due to the re-distribution of water from the melting ice caps: the earth’s mantle is flexible and could be affected by shifts in billions of tons of water. The world will not end, but will change dramatically……
Alternative Technologies are looking at and experimenting with new solutions to green and environmentally friendly energy generation, re-cycling resources efficiently to achieve sustainable living. In the future gas powered cars will be gradually replaced with electric vehicles. Solar panels on the roof will provide an increasing proportion of the power for household use. Piezoelectric pads will be installed in the floors of subways and crowded streets, providing street lighting from low energy LED lighting. Even fabrics will be self-powered with microgenerators; appliances will become smart with embedded microchips that increase their energy efficiency. All these and many more technologies will help contribute to energy conservation.
It is our aim to experiment with all types of alternative technologies and make a small but significant contribution to saving environment.
