Converting your home to solar energy is one of the best investments you will ever make. You’ve heard that installing solar power reduces the value of your home. Or that your roof will leak if you install solar power. You may even have heard that if solar panels are imperfectly installed, your house will burn down. Don’t believe any of it. They’re just not true.

For decades environmentalists have told us that using fossil fuels is a self-destructive addiction that will destroy our planet. Yet by every measure of human well-being, from life expectancy to clean water to climate safety, life has been getting better and better. How can this be? The explanation is that we usually hear only one side of the story. We're taught to think only of the negatives of fossil fuels, their risks and side effects, but not their positives.

The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

The promise of green jobs and a clean energy future has roused the masses. But as Robert Bryce makes clear in this provocative book, that vision needs a major re-vision. We cannotand will notquit using carbon-based fuels at any time in the near future for a simple reason: they provide the horsepower that we crave. The hard reality is that oil, coal, and natural gas are here to stay.

Resumen del Editor
Right now in America, there are about two million homes with solar panels. Considering there are about 90 million single-family homes, that doesn’t seem like a lot. But consider this: We’re now on track to start adding a million new solar-powered systems each year. It’s taken a while to get here, but solar energy is increasingly becoming a popular option to power the home of the future.
In the current climate of increasing energy needs and increasing environmental problems, alternative applications of non-renewable and contaminated fossil fuels must be sought. One of these alternatives is solar energy. Solar energy is simply energy that is produced directly by the sun and collected elsewhere, usually the earth. On the other hand, pоwеr has bеcоmе crazily еxpеnsivе and it is incrеasing thе mоnthly еxpеnditurе. Pоwеr cоmpaniеs makе things difficult fоr thе cоnsumеr by raising thе pеr unit pricе оf еlеctricity as pеr thеir whims and fanciеs.
Sо what is thе nеxt bеst altеrnativе, if yоu dо nоt want tо spеnd yоur hard-еarnеd mоnеy? Yоu cоuld actually build and dеsign yоur оwn sоlar panеl and nоt havе tо pay thе cоmpany. What yоu nееd is a right guidе fоr installatiоn, which wоuld prоvidе yоu with apprоpriatе instructiоns. Hеncе, idеntifying thе right guidе is оf еssеncе, which wоuld hеlp yоu achiеvе yоur gоal оf sоlar pоwеr and alsо lоwеr еlеctricity bills.
Installatiоn оf sоlar panеls brings dоwn yоur pоwеr bills, and in this way yоu cоuld savе mоrе than thоusands оf dоllars annually and usе thе mоnеy fruitfully fоr оthеr purpоsеs. Yоur еntirе hоusе can run mеrеly оn sоlar pоwеr absоlutеly frее оf cоst. Thе cоst оf maintеnancе is lоw and all yоu havе tо dо is tо clеan it up mоnthly, sо that it can gеnеratе pоwеr еfficiеntly. Sоmеtimеs, yоu wоuld alsо havе tо rеstоrе thе cеlls оncе in fеw yеars.

Now, drawing on the lessons gained from 10 years of putting the cradle-to-cradle concept into practice with businesses, governments, and ordinary people, William McDonough and Michael Braungart envision the next step in the solution to our ecological crisis: We don't just reuse resources with greater effectiveness, we actually improve them as we use them.

Since the beginning of human history Mars has been an alluring dream - the stuff of legends, gods, and mystery. The planet most like ours, it has still been thought impossible to reach, let alone explore and inhabit. Now with the advent of a revolutionary new plan, all this has changed. Leading space exploration authority Robert Zubrin has crafted a daring new blueprint, Mars Direct, presented here with engaging anecdotes. The Case for Mars is not a vision for the far future or one that will cost us impossible billions.

For decades environmentalists have told us that using fossil fuels is a self-destructive addiction that will destroy our planet. Yet by every measure of human well-being, from life expectancy to clean water to climate safety, life has been getting better and better. How can this be? The explanation is that we usually hear only one side of the story. We're taught to think only of the negatives of fossil fuels, their risks and side effects, but not their positives.

The Upcycle is the eagerly awaited follow-up to Cradle to Cradle, the most consequential ecological manifesto of our time. Now, drawing on the lessons gained from 10 years of putting the cradle-to-cradle concept into practice with businesses, governments, and ordinary people, William McDonough and Michael Braungart envision the next step in the solution to our ecological crisis: We don't just reuse resources with greater effectiveness, we actually improve them as we use them.

Since the beginning of human history Mars has been an alluring dream - the stuff of legends, gods, and mystery. The planet most like ours, it has still been thought impossible to reach, let alone explore and inhabit. Now with the advent of a revolutionary new plan, all this has changed. Leading space exploration authority Robert Zubrin has crafted a daring new blueprint, Mars Direct, presented here with engaging anecdotes. The Case for Mars is not a vision for the far future or one that will cost us impossible billions.

For over a decade, philosopher and energy expert Alex Epstein has predicted that any negative impacts of fossil fuel use on our climate will be outweighed by the unique benefits of fossil fuels to human flourishing—including their unrivaled ability to provide low-cost, reliable energy to billions of people around the world, especially the world’s poorest people. And contrary to what we hear from media “experts” about today’s “renewable revolution” and “climate emergency”, reality has proven Epstein right.

Regarded as one of the brightest young scientists of his generation, Lewis Dartnell proposes that the key to preserving civilization in an apocalyptic scenario is to provide a quickstart guide, adapted to cataclysmic circumstances. The Knowledge describes many of the modern technologies we employ, but first it explains the fundamentals upon which they are built. The Knowledge is a brilliantly original guide to the fundamentals of science and how it built our modern world as well as a thought experiment about the very idea of scientific knowledge itself.

The human race is at a crossroads. In the coming years, we will make decisions regarding our human spaceflight program that will lead to one of two familiar futures: the open universe of Star Trek, where we allow ourselves the opportunity to spread our wings and attempt to flourish as an interplanetary species - or the closed, dystopian, and ultimately self-destructive world of Soylent Green. If we ever hope to live in the future that is the former scenario, our first stepping stone must be a manned mission to Mars.

Ignition! is the story of the search for a rocket propellant which could be trusted to take man into space. This search was a hazardous enterprise carried out by rival labs who worked against the known laws of nature, with no guarantee of success or safety. John Drury Clark writes with irreverent and eyewitness immediacy about the development of the explosive fuels strong enough to negate the relentless restraints of gravity. The resulting volume is as much a memoir as a work of history, sharing a behind-the-scenes view of an enterprise that eventually took men to the moon.

Not good. One chapter says you can build your own panels and another expains how to use a compass to find which way is north on your house. Another explains the half-life of particles in nuclear reactors. Not sure what level of person this is written for.
