More and more people are installing solar power systems in their houses, saving thousands of dollars on electricity bills, improving the electric power in their house, and actually helping to save our planet. If you'd like to join the millions of businesses, families, and houses that already have a solar power system, it's important to do it in the right way.

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.

Untangle the jargon and design your solar power system from scratch—even if you're new to this! Thomas Edison once said he'd invest in solar energy if he could. Now, you can make it a reality. Amidst the urgency to combat pollution from fossil fuels, solar energy stands out as the greenest and most profitable solution. Imagine harnessing sunlight's abundant energy to power your life – from calculators to entire homes.

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.

Solar power is the most rich vitality asset on Earth. It very well may be caught and utilized in a few different ways, and as a sustainable power source, is a significant piece of our spotless vitality future. Sun-powered vitality originates from the sun and can be caught with different innovations, principally sun-oriented boards. The "photovoltaic impact" is the component by which silicon sun-powered boards outfit the sun's vitality and create power. Need to exploit sun-powered vitality yourself? Sun-based vitality: What is it and how can it work?

Planning to ride a fire pole from the Moon back to Earth? The hardest part is sticking the landing. Hoping to cool the atmosphere by opening everyone’s freezer door at the same time? Maybe it’s time for a brief introduction to thermodynamics. Want to know what would happen if you rode a helicopter blade, made a lava lamp out of lava, or jumped on an erupting geyser?

Discover the best ways to profit from mining crypto in 2018.... You might have thought mining cryptocurrency is no longer worth it. That the costs outweigh the rewards. And you’d be right - for bitcoin. It's true, the current upfront investment is too high to justify any returns. However, there are many other coins which are still very profitable - coins you can mine on your PC or laptop. With no special hardware required. In fact, some of these coins will net you up to $50 a day. That’s an extra $18,500 a year, which you can earn from the comfort of your own home.

A deeply panoramic tour of the night, from its brightest spots to the darkest skies we have left. A starry night is one of nature's most magical wonders. Yet in our artificially lit world, three-quarters of Americans' eyes never switch to night vision and most of us no longer experience true darkness. In The End of Night, Paul Bogard restores our awareness of the spectacularly primal, wildly dark night sky and how it has influenced the human experience across everything from science to art.

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.

In a world where speed and flexibility are valued more than ever, leaders from the corporate boardroom to the military are looking for answers from seemingly unlikely experts - the ones in the grass, in the air, in the lakes, and in the woods. In this innovative audiobook, veteran National Geographic editor Peter Miller shows how swarm species, such as ants, bees, and fish, can teach us to tackle some of the most complex conundrums in business, politics, and technology.
