Mystic Pizza @Mysticpizza (201) • United States 18 Aug 22

Our recent utility bills have had us rethinking our options of alternative power. My husband really wants to go solar. I'm not against that but it does appear to be quite a large initial investment. However going solar could mean...

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 24 Mar 19

It takes tons of steel, plastic and copper to build a Wind Turbine. This either has to be mined or made from recycled material. Either way, it takes a lot of energy to produce. Add to that the fuel required to transport the...

Denise @petatonicsca (7070) • Japan 4 Dec 18
