Your Questions About Renewable Energy For Kids

admin answers:

Heck no!

As a kid, my father was together with a few other families out to start a commune. None of our neighbors were visible from our house. We had running water and electricity, but only my father used it in his ‘communications room.’ Otherwise, we went by kerosene light, and pumped water by hand from the well. We grew our own veggies, ate wild blackberries, and had chickens for eggs and meat, all in preparation for the ‘transition.’

And he still needed a job in town, while the rest of us worked all day to prepare that day’s food. It sucked.

The noble savage is a chimera. He’s too busy trying to feed, house, and protect his family to be concerned with bigger philosophical issues, much less keep himself disease free and keep the lice out of his beard. Only in the more socially sophisticated societies where the general populace were able to move beyond the hunter/gatherer model and concern themselves with topics like philosophy, virtue, art, learning, justice, humanity, and equality.

And who wants to go back to an average 50 year lifespan?
Ma and Pa Kettle? They didn’t make that kettle, they bought it from Sears and Roebuck. Same with Pa’s old rifle.

Now, I’m not saying that having those kind of survival skills isn’t valuable, but living that life generally requires you to practice those skills to the exclusion of most others.

Because the way technology goes (cell phones already beat the crap out of those crappy old Star Trek communicators) I could see the day when everybody lives green in houses that natively produce energy with the byproduct of oxygen, drinking water, fertilizer, and recoverable solids, and everything is wireless. We are on the verge of it, already. If we can work out cold fusion, we’re all set. Everyone’s mounting interest and involvement in funding the development of new energy technologies (the bills just keep passing for the funding, go figure) practically guarantees that this problem will eventually be solved through typical capitalistic models.

No ma’am, I’m all for progress. We humans can and do screw up everything we attempt, everywhich way from Tuesday, but we tend to always have the highest of ideals that, after long, long circulation, experimentation, trial, and error, eventually make it out. Human equality (oh fine, I’ll say feminism) for example. It’s the mainstream idea, in the world, these days. We haven’t worked the kinks out on every level of society, but there is no utopia.

I think we’ll get it closer to right before we blow the whole shebang to dust. Really, I do.

I think you can take any of the LEED certification programs to learn more; i just heard of it through this company called GotGreenKits.
This company called GotGreenKits came up with this clean-by-color system to educate ppl about sustainable green cleaning to conserve energy.
In case ur curious, this is a natural green cleaning system that actually works a lot better than most products; and the system is intend to improve indoor air quality for the kids and family members! It was first used by professional cleaning service to clean doctor’s office and real estate buildings, and you can ONLY buy their products online!
