We would like for our readers to share their personal experience or stories as alternative energy articles below. We could all use the help of each other as we strive to utilize the alternative energy resources that abound. I heard yesterday that the cost of gasoline will be reaching almost $4.00 per gallon by the Summer of 2008. Add that to the increased cost of heating oil and electricity. We all could use some help in reducing these costs while reducing harmful pollutants.
Do have personal knowledge of solar panels or solar hot water heaters? How about using wind turbines at your home? Can you make recommendations about what fuel additive works or not? Driving your vehicles on methane or ethanol? Better yet, are you making your own fuels? How are you doing it?
Maybe you have a question on a certain topic related to renewable energy. Ask it here, I will post it and an expert in that area will submit a response. Look at it as our "online forum" with me as the moserator.
Once approved, your experiences, stories and/or questions will be posted as an informative blog or article on renewable energy here and throughout the site to help us all in gaining a knowledge base of what to use and how to use it.
Do you have any personal experience working with alternative or renewable energy? Please share it!
