Space Zoo Patrol – Rock the Sun™ (Future energy technology)
We have used coal, oil, gas, and nuclear as sources of energy for decades and as such these sources have come to be known as “conventional energy.” This plentiful supply of energy has allowed our country to grow and prosper. And for that we thank these industries.
However, now, in order to keep up with growing energy demand we need to seek out new additional energy technologies.
Scientists in the United States have researched, invented, and developed new sources of energy. Compared to conventional sources, renewable sources have lower lifecycle costs than conventional energy, zero emissions (with no effects on human health or environmental health), are geopolitically secure, and are inexhaustible. These sources have come to be known as “renewable energy” or “solar energy.”
It is time to say yes to solar energy. It is time to say “Rock the Sun.”
