Don't fall Victim To The Myths Of Going Green
Going Green has begotten a lot of recognition in the last few years.
Swimming through what is real and what is not can leave many people ill informed and I am annoyed of all of the misuses of the "Going Green Movement".
Truthfully this misunderstanding is helping to consume unrenewable resources and even worse reducing jobs. The depressing part is it has been going on for decades.
There are many companies out there proclaiming that they are offering services in the name of going green when in reality they are just conserving their own money and even work that they should be paying others to do.
For example, your bank very likely has lured you into switching your account statements into emails instead of using the U.S. Postal Service. They profess that it saves trees and landfills by minimizing the use of paper.
If anyone was to take the time to think about this, they will find that the only thing it truly saves is money for the bank.
See paper is formed from a renewable resource, TREES!
Trees can be farmed and replanted. Pine trees grow rather fast and are produced on tree farms throughout our country. Paper can also be recycled, saving it from filling landfills.
The banks may not even realize this. They may have been sold on this fake "going green" idea also. I honestly doubt it, but I will give them the benefit of the doubt.
The truth is that they save money from not printing the statements, putting them in an envelope, and paying for postage to mail them.
Do you see the jobs that are suffering by them theoretically going green? Tree farms, paper mills, envelope makers, and the U.S. postal service is suffering from these banks trying to save a few pennies and covering it by claiming to be going green.
Another example that helps me focus this in to another true point is those little hand dryers in public restrooms. The little metal plate posted on them declares that those electric hand dryers are much better for the environment because they cut back on paper cost and landfill space.
Now I'm not going to go off on the absurb claims about saving paper again. No, now I am going to talk about the use of electricity.
Many power plants throughout the U.S. use coal to produce the power needed to run those little electric hand dryers. Can it really be "better" for the environment to pump the emissions out of a coal burning power plant to run these hand dryers. The crazy part is it doesn't work on the first push of the botton anyway?
Is it really more fitting to use a non-renewable resource like coal instead of paper that can be produced from farmed trees?
I really can not believe the wool that is being pulled of everyones eyes. No, what those electric hand dryers do is save money for the persons who try to make you believe these things are better and they help keep those public bathrooms free of litter that someone has to clean up.
My final example is the one that chaps my hide the most and terrifies me of the future. This is the one that has been going on since the industrial revolution. Automated workers.
Automated workers... Those robots and computer programs that take up working class jobs for the sake of saving industries long term money. They save on wages and even retirement plans that the working class use to try to survive on.
Now before I go to town on a tangent about how the industries needed to focus on making jobs safer without firing the employees and putting in robots, I will move on and save that thought for you the reader to ponder over.
Instead let me bring up the thought in you to think about the power needed to run these electrical robots and the amount of coal powered electric plants spread out across the United States.
Who are these electrical workers truly helping?
It's not me or the other out of work Americans. No, it's those top executives that think only of oneself, their money, and do not genuinely care about the people at the real heart of their business.
I think the American people need to have their eyes opened during these times of going green because if the truth is seen then this can be a beautiful, environmentally friendly movement.
Supporters of the Green Movement everywhere need to realize that when we as Americans say "No" to using our natural resources and still go about useing them, then the laws of supply and demand is going to make these resources cost more when we do get these resources. In the end we are sending a disturbing message across the world.
That concept is "We Save Our Resources So That We Can Deplete Yours". This is really dismal and I do not like how it feels in my gut. We as Americans need to step back and stop thinking about the "Going Green Movement" as a way to save money and ponder what it really stands for, Saving The Environment.
Going green does not stand for making a new light bulb that cost less to energize or turning off the water when we brush our teeth. We can not waste water. Water will make it back into the water cycle. All of this is Just Saving Money! And Going Green definitely doesn't mean saving money by no longer utilizing renewable resources, exactly the opposite in fact.
Going Green stands for discovering new alternative ways to power our lives with natural resources provided by our planet and the universe.
One way I am going to begin helping the environment is by researching alternative power sources to power some of the appliances inside my home.
I am discovering how to build my own solar panels for less than a hundred dollars and in the near future I am going to invest in setting up bladeless wind turbines that are now being presented in the United States.
I have gathered up reviews for many of the best do-it-yourself (DIY) guides and products along with the help of some friends and you can find out our top choices on our website.
Join us in a genuine "Going Green Revolution" and begin thinking about the true impact and reasons of going green. You can check out our reviews at http://www.eddie23gproductreviews.com/goinggreen/ and start making your own positive impact in the journey to "Going Green"

Swimming Pool Solar Sun Rings -( SSRN , Solar Sun Rings ) $29.99 What Are Solar Sun Rings? The Solar Sun Ring is a passive solar swimming pool heating device made from two sheets of heavyweight U.V. resistant vinyl. The upper clear layer holds insulating air and focuses sunlight on the blue colored lower layer. The blue layer absorbs about 50% of the sunlight and converts it to heat. The balance of the sunlight is allowed topass through for deep water heating. Each Sun Solar Ring generates 21,000 BTU per day. Rings are 60" in diameter.How Do Solar Sun Rings Work? At night the contained air acts as an insulating blanket to retain heat gained during daylight. Solar Sun Rings are equipped with six 32 gauss magnets to improve clarity and decrease hardness of the waterin your pool. The magnets are positioned to facilitate rafting. The strength of the magnets will permit single position removal but will easily separate to prevententrapment in accidental falls.Solar Sun Rings were designed to be compatible with automatic pool cleaners. In the event the suction hose catches on a ring, the ring will separate from the raft to allow the pool cleaner to continue. Neither water norpool chemicals can evaporate through the Solar Sun Rings two layers of heavyweight vinyl. You will save water and chemicals about equal to the percentage of the surface covered. Once the water in your pool has reached adequate temperature, Solar Sun Rings may be turned over to conserve water by limiting evaporation without significantly heating the water.Your pool requires some direct sunlight and open water to stay healthy. The open water around the raft of Solar Sun Rings and the triangle caused by the convergence of three Solar Sun Rings is by design. These open areas allow your pool to receive some direct sunlight. This sunlight will greatly reduce the incidence of mustard algae.Easily Cleaned - After removal from the swimming pool, Solar Sun Rings can be easily cleaned with a sponge and mild detergent solution.Warranty: Solar Sun Rings are warranted to be free of manufacturing defects for two years. Warranty is limited to materials and workmanship.Solar Sun Rings Features:Safety: No other floating solar cover matches SolarSun Rings design for safety. Countless pets and many people have died because of entrapment with the one piece bubble pack covers. The primary design criteria of the Solar Sun Ring was to prevent entrapment.Durability: High quality ultra violet resistant vinyl(polyvinyl chloride) is used exclusively for durability that cannot be achievedby the inferior plastic used in bubble pack covers. Vinyl will normally outlastpolyethylene 3 to 1. The vinyl used to manufacture Solar Sun Rings is not destroyed by pH fluctuation |

Solar Thermal: Solar Thermal Energy $28.83 Chapters: Solar Thermal Energy. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 149. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Solar thermal energy (STE) is a technology for harnessing solar energy for thermal energy (heat). Solar thermal collectors are defined by the USA Energy Information Administration as low-, medium-, or high-temperature collectors. Low temperature collectors are flat plates generally used to heat swimming pools. Medium-temperature collectors are also usually flat plates but are used for creating hot water for residential and commercial use. High temperature collectors concentrate sunlight using mirrors or lenses and are generally used for electric power production. STE is different from photovoltaics, which convert solar energy directly into electricity. While only 600 megawatts of solar thermal power is up and running worldwide in October 2009 according to Dr David Mills of Ausra, another 400 megawatts is under construction and there are 14,000 megawatts of the more serious concentrating solar thermal (CST) projects being developed. Of the 21,000,000 square feet (2,000,000 m) of solar thermal collectors produced in the United States in 2006, 16,000,000 square feet (1,500,000 m) were of the low-temperature variety. Low-temperature collectors are generally installed to heat swimming pools, although they can also be used for space heating. Collectors can use air or water as the medium to transfer the heat to their destination. MIT's Solar House #1 built in 1939 used seasonal thermal storage for year round heating.In the United States, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for over 25 percent (4.75 EJ) of the energy used in commercial buildings and nearly half (10.1 EJ) of the energy used in residential buildings.
