Often times, we cannot see the negative effects of our actions. The reason is that we do not have time for it sometimes. All we seek is a better way to live our life.

t is not necessary to spend a small fortune on photovoltaic panels or grow 90% of your own food to be green. Make simple changes to the chemicals you use when cleaning your home and recycle excess waste whenever possible. It may seem like a futile exercise but if everyone complies and becomes more green in just one way, a greater difference than you could ever imagine could occur.

Every era seems to have a home or line of homes that identify those specific times and what was needed at that time.

Living on a country club is quite interesting, and anyone who has ever lived on a golf course knows what I’m saying when I tell them I live in the Green Zone. Still, the question is; if I live on a golf course am I really living green, after all it takes a lot of water to keep everything green, and that might not necessarily be environmentally friendly to hog that much water. However there are ways to limit the amount of water used on the outside shrubbery of a home.

Make no mistake about it; solar panels are the key to harvesting the sun’s energy. Then what happens, how does it run our household appliances? To answer that in very simple terms, a complete home energy system.

With the economy in turmoil and the cost of fuel rising it makes perfect sense to consider alternative energy sources. It also makes perfect sense to become self sufficient. You can build a magnet motor generator for about one hundred dollars. And if your electric needs are greater than the average home or business you can build two or more of these magnet motor generators and easily tie them into your existing electric system.

Green technology can be better understood as sustainable technology which has zero or minimal environmental impact. At the helm of an environmental crisis, this sector is finally gaining momentum. A relatively new industry, it provides scope for innovative thinking, aims at safer end products and to the sentimental, gives the satisfaction of contributing towards the greater good.

Fossil fuels are coal, oil, and gas. They may be the major energy resource currently used, but they are not the only options available. And they are certainly not the safest for the environment. There are, indeed, many other sources of energy available for our use. Some of them are even renewable. This means that their supply will always be replenished.
