Introducing to SL: clean energy
The movie "an Inconvenient Truth" by Al Gore has brought climate change to the attention of a large number of people. Most people now realize that the use of oil at the rate with which we are doing that at the moment cannot be sustained, if we want to save our climate that is. The movie paints a picture of disaster due to our Carbondioxide emissions.
What many people do NOT yet realize however, is that there may not be enough oil to meet our demand for energy in the first place.
Many believe that the production of oil is about to reach its highest level soon (or has reached it already), after which the production is to decline,. Combined with an everincreasing demand for energy... this is bound to bring problems. This is called Peakoil (www.peakoil.com), a theory first constructed by Hubbert who used it to *correctly* predict the oilproduction of the US for the period 1956-1980.
The extent of these problems varies, some foresee the end of the world, others figure it is no big deal. I personally believe the consequences of peakoil will be significant, but not the end of the world. However, peakoil too, demands that we work on getting alternatives for cheap oil energy.
To raise awareness of this topic, I am introducing a range of clean energy solutions into SL.
My first product is a windmill, white, with a 10m radius. (this week, L$50 of the L$150 sales price refunded when the discount voucher is returned).
And second: solarpanels
So drop by the shop -Sanggae (82, 206, 52) - to pick up one or more items, and put them on your land.
They look cool, AND they make a statement!
