Living
with the Earth in Harmony
An enormous benefit of solar power is the impact on air quality and
other aspects of the environment. According to the US
government's Energy Information Administration, over one-fourth of the
air pollution produced by burning fossil fuels is a byproduct of
electric power production. Acid rain caused by emissions of sulfur
dioxide during the burning of coal and oil has been reduced in the last
20 years but has not been completely solved. One problem, which has yet
to be addressed, is that of greenhouse gas and other undesirable
emissions. Many scientists today believe that the growing amounts of
these gases in our "bubble" are resulting in a slow heating of our
planet known as global warming. The most immediate impact of this is a
possible change in the moisture patterns and resulting agricultural
output, in our country. Solar-ANYTHING
is GREEN.

Because harmony with nature is one of our principles, we constantly
strive to develop and design products with environmental benefits.
Environmental:
We take environmental issues seriously. Our Environment calls for ever
greater efforts to resolve and prevent ecological problems. We can
coexist in harmony with our planet and the Universe that surrounds us.
Green
Committees:
We are working to turn environmental plans into concrete action.
