Hi guys, thought i’d start my first post off with one of my energy articles..

Why should I choose renewable energyThis article will show you what you can do to save cash while creating energy for yourself. the way the recession is at the moment, anyway to save money is a good one isn’t it?Would appeal to you to save hundreds on your bills? It is commonly believed, that although better for the environment, it is a lot more expensive and not much help toward paying the energy bills. It is thought they frequently breakdown and take an extremely long time to install.There’s now a cheap and cheerful way of creating your very own renewable energy in your garden! Believe it when I say renewable energy is definitely the way forward, maybe if more people jumped on the bandwagon, and used renewable energy the earth would be a clean one. Statistics show that the non-renewable sources of gas, coal and oil are going to run out within the next 50 years at the rate we are using them. In preparation for this government is trying to implement their own policies to build more renewable energy sources.And what will happen when the oil, gas and coal continues to be used until there’s hardly any left? It would be you the consumer who suffers with much more expensive energy bills. Tell me how I go about getting cheaper electric bills! Well there’s a couple ways, two of which are building a wind turbine and putting up some solar panels, so what you waiting for! Imagine if you had a solar panel installed on the top of the house five years, as electricity prices keep rising you would see the huge amount? Depending on the size of your house, it quite possible that you could save thousands of dollars!’This is the way forward; it has to be, and the sooner everyone installs their own solar panels and wind turbines, the sooner the planet can get cleaner and healthier.
