Hi, I was just trying to figure out how long the tech school is for this job and where it might be? Any help would be great. I do have college credits already I don’t know if they actually do anything with tech school I have 30 “college” credits and I think the only thing that might co-work with it is some welding classes. Everything else is kinda General-Ed etc…

Would having a Solar PV, Solar Hot Water & Heat or Small Wind Turbine, SUCK or be GOOD?

Do you think you can’t afford this? Ever look at youtube videos about Solar Photovoltaic Electricity and how easy it is to get it installed. Have you gotten any local estimates? Small wind turbines on roofs. Just another simple, maintenance free appliance, live a TV roof satellite TV dish, but Solar are panels on your roof. Patches right into you electric company and the Electric company buys excess power during the date. Rebates make it very affordable. Get 3 quotes in your area. Investigate Solar Power, Solar Hot water, Small Wind turbines, Solar PV panels are warranted 25 Years. It’s a long-term saving, but as prices rise so do you saving and payback. You don’t know if it SUCKS or is GOOD unless you’ve looked into it. Many are surprise voltage goes up in colder temperatures. So you don’t have to be in CA to benefit big time. Creates Jobs too for installers and manufacturers, etc. Give the question a try though, what do you think?

My school has a man made forest. This project has just been done late 2006. It was created by the Green Club where environment & saving nature resources is concern. But we have a fountain which reacts like a river. People ask me, is it environment friendliness just to keep the pump on all day to pump water out. I couldn’t answer them. So my question is, how do I pump water without using electricity?

How do you unclog a water fountain, w/o having to call the plumber?

We have a upright standing drinking fountain at work, kinda like the ones in high school. The problem is that the water in the top isn’t draining like it’s supposed to down the little holes. Is there a way to fix it without calling the plumber? I wouldn’t think you could use mr plumber or such b/c it would contaminate the other water, wouldn’t it?

Where can I find statistics for “going green” and saving electricity, water, gas (oil), etc.?

I’m writing this article for my school newspaper and what we wanted to do is
“If 1 million people turned off their lights for ___ hours a day, it would save ____ kilowatts of electricity, this amount could power a ___.”
Something like that…basically it’s like the impact of doing “green” things.
It doesn’t have to exactly match the example. I just can’t find anything for the electricity one.
Thanks for the help! If you have any suggestions please post them!
