The alarming truth about solar power

The world has been using solar power for about hundreds of years already. And today it is the most commonly talked form of renewable energy. Yes, it’s true that solar power is clean, sustainable and free. But do you know the alarming truth behind it? Solar energy is considered as clean energy since it does not produce any fossil fuel which destroys our environment however many environmentalists worry about the hazardous wastes from the process of making solar panels. Major amount of fossil fuels are being used just to make solar panels for one solar power. Another problem with these solar panels, their solar cells have toxic materials which cannot be recycled easily.


It seems that solar industry will soon create same problems we have with other industries. There should be an ingenious way of solving this. As what many environmentalists think, the government and solar industry need to set policies to ensure that the use of solar power does not leave waste in our environment.

The perfect alternative

Who doesn’t want to have a sustainable energy at the same time living in a zero waste community? Of course everyone dreams of this. We need unlimited source of green energy that does not pollute our environment but instead helps in saving it. The good thing is, there's a proven solution with this problem. Biosphere gasification technology is the answer, a perfect alternative for solar power. It’s a green technology that uses solid wastes to generate sustainable clean energy. Unlike other sources of energy, it does not pollute our environment, for it uses a limited-oxygen process that limits atmospheric emissions. Solid wastes wouldn’t be a problem too since all will be converted into clean energy.

This is the green technology for a cleaner and greener earth. Now think, consider, and make your choice.

Importance of MRF – Material Recycling Facility

What is MRF? MRF or Material Recycling Facility also known as Material Recovery Facility integrates conveyors system which is used for material recovery or recycling. It has sorting machinery wherein it divides recyclables according to end marketable usage. Normally, there are two different types of MRF, the clean and dirty MRF’s. Significance of MRF As we know it, recycling is one method of conserving our natural environment. And MRF systems play an important role in doing the method of recycling in a large scale basis. As an essential component of innovative waste management system by means of recycling, MRF greatly helps in conserving the environment. It lessens the extraction of our natural resources thus creating a more sustainable way of manufacturing new products. Aside from that is decreases the amount of waste materials in our community thus prevents the spread of environmental contaminants that may also bring dangers in human health. MRF also offers high processin...

Benefits of Mangrove Planting

Mangroves are salt-tolerant trees that grow in tropical and subtropical seashores. These areas are hard-hitting places for plants to grow. Mangroves can thrive in salty water and survive in harsh conditions because of their strong roots that can filter the salinity of the sea and only consume the fresh water it needs. Aside from its ability to stand against the salty water of the sea, Mangrove is also well known to contribute to the overall health of the coastal area by providing food, shelter and environmental protection for marine organisms, nest dwellers and even humans living near seashores. This family of shrubs traps and rotates different elements, chemicals, and minerals. Their roots acts as block and provide environmental protection for some various marine organism such as fish and seashells. They also provide food for various marine species such as oyster, shrimp, tarpon, jack, and snook. Not only the marine organisms benefit in mangroves, but their branches also serve...

Environmentalists to P-Noy: End the Coal Burning in the Philippines

Environmentalists urge Pres.Aquino's administration to make immediate resolution on stopping the power coal plants in the country. The fact remains that coal burning causes adverse effects to our environment and human health. Some of the problems brought by coal burning include smog, acid rain, global warming and air pollution. Moreover, the dangers of coal burning have gone too far by affecting the public health of many Filipinos particularly in the areas where coal-fired power plants are located. Only recently, some residents in Barangay Ingore La Paz, Iloilo have been hospitalized after inhaling fumes from the plant. Good thing many organizations are now supporting the house resolution filed regarding the moratorium on the construction of new coal-fired power plants in the country. The said resolution is a response to Aquino administration’s push for coal power plants. Administration of Pres. Aquino has allowed another two new coal power plants in Iloilo city and Cebu provi...
