Growing up in the 80s, the idea of saving the world was robust.\u00a0 There was talk of saving the whales, talk of protecting endangered species and a lot of talk about recycling.\u00a0 Very infrequently was there talk of solar.\u00a0 Why? The technology was out of reach for the average consumer. It was expensive, and it was difficult to find any sort of local solar company that could install your panels. Fast forward 20 years, and solar is everywhere.\u00a0 And as competition between residential solar companies become more intense, the draw of solar panels was saving money.\u00a0 The environment was lost.<\/p>\n

The problem is, without remembering how solar panels can save the deteriorating environment, people may be less determined to get them installed.\u00a0 Saving money is important. But, money saved is not much when there is not any place to live. So consider it an environmental health solution by going solar.<\/p>\n

Eliminate Greenhouse Gases<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"

Most of the electricity in the United States comes from fossil fuels, like coal, and natural gas.\u00a0 Extracting fossil fuels is both expensive and harmful to the environment.\u00a0 Greenhouse gases are produced when fossil fuels are burned, further damaging the environment. With solar panels, you generate electricity from an abundant resource \u2013 the sun!\u00a0 Reducing dependence on fossil fuels will show an immediate decrease in the amount of greenhouse emissions.\u00a0 We know burning fossil fuels has led to rising global temperatures and climate change.\u00a0 Residential solar allows homeowners to eliminate greenhouse gases. Solar is a solution to the serious environmental and public health issues plaguing the world. Choosing a clean energy source for electricity through solar can eliminate carbon emissions.<\/p>\n
