Environmental Concerns

	Forums	Topics	Posts	Last Post
	Food Today, over half of the worlds population live in urban environments, with little or no access to arable land. Water supplies around the world are diminishing and over 2 billion people are at risk of food insecurity. The traditional methods which require heavy water consumption and transportation are not meeting the needs of 1/3 the worlds population. New food growing systems are need for many parts of the world.	0	0
	Solar Energy The Earth receives more energy from the Sun in one hour, then it uses in one year. Solar panels capture about 19% of the available power.	0	0
	Climate Change CO2 has risen from 280 ppm to 379 since pre-industrial times and its growth seems to be accelerating. Sea level is rising by 3.1 mm/yr, now measured by altimetry satellites. Ocean acidity is rising, hurricanes are become more intense, heat waves and heavy precipitation more frequent, and there is less sea ice and snow cover.	0	0
	Aquaculture Aquaculture is the raising and harvesting of fresh- and saltwater plants and animals. Aquaculture was first practiced in China 3,000 years ago. Fish farming is the most efficient way to raise a high quality protein in a confined area. By cycling the fish pond water through a hydroponic garden, the water is used to grow plants, the plants are used to filter the water. This closed system is called Aquaponics. The Inka Sun Curve system is an Aquaponic "micro farm".	0	0
	Wind Power Wind power involves harnessing the kinetic energy in wind and converting it to electricity via a wind turbine. Wind turbines consist of rotors (also referred to as blade) that turn a shaft that is connected to a generator. The generator converts the wind energy to electricity.	0	0
	Water The same water that existed on the Earth millions of years ago is still present today. On the Earth, only 0.01% of the Earth’s total water is suitable for human consumption. Most of the world’s aquifers are severely depleted. It takes centuries for aquifers to recharge. The world is currently running a groundwater overdraft of 200 billion cubic meters a year.	0	0
