proudly declared that his "all of the above" energy plan is working to make energy independence a reality‚ he focused primarily on natural gas. While a step-up from foreign oil‚ natural gas is not always "extracted safely‚" i.e.fracking. He mentioned solar power and asserted that tax reform must prevent Big Oil from receiving $4 billion a year‚ so that this money can be invested in alternative fuel sources. And‚ to restate what we already know‚ the President made clear that climate change is indeed real

“Compare and contrast solar power with coal powered energy” Energy is an important factor in todays society‚ it is neccesary to power business‚ manufacturing and the transportation of goods and services all around the world. Solar powered energy is energy from the sun. This energy can be conerted into different energy like heat and electricity. Heat can be used to heat water or heat spaces‚ for example heating for houses‚ buildings or even swimming pools. Solar energy can be converted in two ways

the development of the building towards being more environmental-friendly and achieve GBI rating. This study is to study the potential of incorporation of solar power and wind power generation on high rise building in Malaysia. Malaysia being located at the equator having abundance of solar energy all year round is ideal for application of solar power generation but with the low wind speed on the ground‚ wind power generation may not be suitable. However‚ a good building design to enhance the wind

Around 1250 A.D.‚ historical records show‚ ice packs began showing up farther south in the North Atlantic. Glaciers also began expanding on Greenland‚ soon to threaten Norse settlements on the island. From 1275 to 1300 A.D.‚ glaciers began expanding more broadly‚ according to radiocarbon dating of plants killed by the glacier growth. The period known today as the Little Ice Age was just starting to poke through. Summers began cooling in Northern Europe after 1300 A.D.‚ negatively impacting growing
