RE: Solar energy is coming

in #life6 years ago

I totally agree. Despite the costs, solar energy in the long term turns out to be cheaper than any other. The only explanation for which we are still using the fossil fuel is the large amount of money that the giants of the oil industry would lose and for no one is a secret, the domain they exercise over governments and even over the world economy. But the change is unstoppable, we will soon celebrate together this great step for humanity.

Sort:  

I believe that with the astonishing numbers spent on oil and lobbying, if we would invest that in research for solar and alternative energy sources solar would be even more affordable today. Those oil companies and gas companies don't want to lose money though @sony-albornoz ;)

It is true! It is a strong fight against very powerful companies but we still have a more powerful weapon, the information. We need to use it to educate the world on this issue and that we can exert pressure on the state.

Yes I hope that we will be able to make changes in the future. A friend of mine started Zero Waste Netherlands and I try to support them on their campaigns. It's a small step, but I hope it will lead to big things :)
