We all know that living in a clean and hygienic home that doesn't make us sick is very important. Unfortunately, we aren't treating Planet Earth with the same consideration! This infographic by the Climate Reality Project shows exactly how fossil vs renewable energy can impact our health.
*Many people around the world, in both urban and rural communities, struggle to break out of the cycle of poverty. One of the reasons is a lack of electricity. A staggering 600 million people in Africa are without reliable, affordable electricity.
South Africans are bombarded with quite a lot of bad news: the falling Rand, the rising cost of living, and a struggling infrastructure amongst other things.
But not all the news is bad. Did you know you can halve your electricity costs for your business or household?
Solar power has been in a constant state of innovation, with new advances in solar panel technology announced almost every week. Throughout 2017, there were milestones in solar efficiency, solar energy storage, wearable solar technology and solar design tech.
South Africans have been at the mercy of Eskom and municipal electricity for nearly a full century. Rising costs of power, mismanagement of the infrastructure and less bang for your buck every year - how time flies when you’re having fun!
South Africans are becoming more familiar with the global shift towards alternative forms of energy. We’re all pretty sick of rising electricity costs, the constant looming spectre of load shedding, and an increasingly compromised infrastructure.
Here in South Africa, some things are pretty certain: greedy politicians, bad roads, inconsistent sports teams - and an unreliable and expensive electrical grid system. Another thing we can be sure of – lots and lots of lovely sunshine.
The term “solar” comes from the Latin word Sol, meaning sun in modern English. As South Africans, we’re more than familiar with the big fiery heavenly body that gives us life – and feels like it’s trying to kill us, in summer!
