She’s Got Solar on her Mind

I’ve got a secret. I’m not posting this message you’re reading, at least, not when it says I’m posting it. Today is my son’s birthday. He’s turning six, and by noon we’ll be at Chuck E Cheese’s enjoying all the games before anyone else shows up. I’m using this program called MarsEdit, and while I don’t have it all figured out, I’m branching out of my comfort zone, folks.

Sometimes we all have to branch out, for all kinds of reasons. Switching to solar energy might very well be covered by that umbrella. There’s all kinds of misinformation surrounding solar power, but it is a viable energy source that we need to pay more attention to.

Noel over at Unplugged Living has been highlighting some solar-powered means of transportation lately. Take a look!
