Working in the city can be unpleasant at the best of times, but never more so than when summer smog saturates the air, forcing you to breathe in poisonous fumes whenever you go outside. On days like that, it’s a great relief to be able to travel home to a nice suburban house, watching the air get cleaner as you go. But when you get in and turn on your television, turn up the air conditioning, cook a meal or heat some water for a nice relaxing bath, you’re contributing to the very problem you hate so much. You’re adding to the world’s pollution. And you don’t have to. Clean energy used to seem like an unlikely dream, part of that television future where everybody worse silver jumpsuits and kitchens looked after themselves. But over the last few years, things have been changing. Solar energy as alternative power is now a practical reality. Solar panels no longer have to be fitted by experts - you can set them up yourself in a matter of hours, and they’re efficient enough to work even on those days when the smog drifts out as far as your home. What’s more, though they do require a significant investment at the outset, they’re cheap to maintain, with a long life expectancy, and you’ll very quickly make your money back in savings on your power bills. Because, of course, once the panels are installed, all the energy which comes from them is free! Installing solar panels is an easy and efficient way to start living a cleaner life - one which will improve not only your home, but everywhere else you have to go, too. It may seem like a very small gesture when the rest of the world is carrying on the same way, but every change has to start somewhere, and it’s up to you to show your neighbours what modern, clean living is about. So make the change now, and someday you’ll be able to enjoy a clean environment no matter where you are.
