1.0 Abstract Energy efficiency of a building is becoming an important factor in the new era of building design. GBI Malaysia is developed by PAM and ACEM to drive the Malaysian property industry towards becoming more environment-friendly. Hence‚ incorporation of renewable energy as part of building design directs 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

readily available energy. Fossil fuel based energy sources are costly‚ non-renewable and cause pollution‚ however wind energy has become the potential solution for all of our energy problems‚ or so we thought. McGuinty’s legacy is a green nightmare‚ by Margret Wente of the Globe and Mail explains that wind power cannot be considered green when manufacturing these energy sources is ultimately corrupting the environment and its wildlife. The article also explains that wind energy is too costly and

planetBACKGROUND:We’ve all heard about Climate Change and you’ve now heard me list some of its disastrous effects‚ but what exactly causes it? And what can we do about it?In a nutshell‚ global warming‚ known as climate change‚ is the heating up of our world. It is the result of huge amounts of CO2 being pumped into the atmosphere‚ via the burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil to produce power and electricity and thousands and thousands of products‚ from plastic to makeup to the clothes that we wear

There is increasing use of energy drinks to enhance athletic performance. The purpose of the study is to observe the effects of energy drinks on heart rate and if there is an increase in overall heart rate due to increase consumption. Twenty-three males participated in the study as well as ten males attending GCU. Prior to completing the physical test‚ participants were arbitrarily assigned to receive a placebo or energy drink. In addition‚ a Polar heart rate monitor was attached to the individuals
