In a world obsessed with fossil fuels and other non-renewable energy sources, it is refreshing to take a quick look at what the industries of renewable energy are accomplishing.
Let’s run through some of the dangers and how to prevent them. Sunburn As you walk along the beach you will notice some people who have a nice healthy tan and others who have been burnt to a crisp. Not only is sunburn painful but it can make you sick giving you chills, nausea, and causing you to vomit. Your sunburn generally ranges from first degree burns which are redness and itchiness of the skin to secondary burns where blistering of the skin occurs and you are likely to develop an infection.
If you are considering solar panels for your home, there are many things you need to keep in mind so you can ensure that you choose the best panels for your location and your budget.
Recognizable by most through its appearance in the Hollywood movie “Sahara” the solar plant is much larger than it appears on screen (as only one section of the entire plant was displayed in the film) and boasts the capability of producing 377 megawatts of power, much more than a simple Phonosolar 300 watt panel.
Because the light from the sun is from a range of different wave-lengths, it is difficult for the solar panels to use energy from all of the sun’s light. This means that current models of solar panels do waste some of the sun’s energy, but remember that without these panels, the complete energy of the sun would be wasted.
You can use cool showers or compression to help remove the heat from the skin. This is a step further from sun burn and you may need to seek medical attention quickly. Heat Exhaustion Heat Exhaustion and its nasty older brother heat stroke are very serious and can be life threatening.
Heat Exhaustion includes symptoms including extreme thirst, cotton mouth, dizziness, and redness of the skin. If the heat exhaustion goes a step further and becomes heat stroke you will become extremely dizzy and possibly blackout. You may also stop sweating and have very dry skin as there are no fluids in your body to produce sweat. The lack of fluid will lead to organ failure and loss of adequate oxygen circulation in your system.
Remember also that in some areas you can sell your excess energy to other energy companies, and use other sources of energy when the light is insufficient to power your home.
Meant only to power the LED lights within the bus itself, the hybrid diesel electric bus is still the first in what many hope will be a long line of solar powered solutions to transit. These and other imaginative and forward-thinking projects undertaken by companies, governments, and private citizens around the globe provide the hope of a world no longer bound by its dependence upon the pollutants of fossil fuels.
Treat it with respect and enjoy the sun responsibly. Hopefully you never fall prey to the more viscous repercussions of excessive sun exposure and if you find yourself with mild sunburn let that be a lesson to you.
