Self Defence


 

Does anyone want to take the world and do what he wants with it?
I do not see how he can succeed.
The world is a sacred vessel,
which must not be tampered with or grabbed after.
To tamper with it is to spoil it,
and to grasp it is to lose it.

 (Lao Tzu)

Alternatives

Earths resources are being drained at a catastrophic, unsustainable rate, but there are alternatives.
We do not need to rely on the environmentally damaging production of coal, gas and nuclear power.

Burning oil, coal and gas releases greenhouse gases.

Wind, wave and solar power are all realistic options. 

Energy 

Installing solar panels is expensive but if you can afford the initial cost it will soon pay for itself.
You can sell surplus energy back to the national grid.
Some national and regional bodies offer grants towards solar panels and other energy saving initiatives:

Consider changing your electric company to one that is committed to green alternatives?

Many green options are now available, and they use more sustainable energy sources.
