Little Known Solar Facts.....

Is solar power and solar energy the same thing?
Actually even though people interchange both words, they are not the same thing. Solar energy is the “catch all” term that describes all the uses of solar rays.

Solar power is the specific action of photovoltaic rays being captured and converted into electricity. Most people do not realize the difference and it is a very common misconception.

Little Known Electric Car Facts.....

How does an electric car work?
An electric car has an electric motor that is powered by a controller. The controller receives power from rechargeable batteries. The controller gives the power to the driver in a series of volts that range from zero to ninety-six. It may sound complicated but the principle is similar to that of a remote control car.

Little Known Recycling Facts.....

What are the three "R’s?"
The three "R’s" would be: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Reduce is using less non-biodegradable substances that cannot be recycled. The second is to reuse items such as plastic containers or appliances that can be repaired.

The third is to recycle products so that they can be given life again as something new. The way to tie all three together is to buy recycled materials. This creates an incentive for more people to recycle products because they know that they will be used in a new way later down the road.
