No matter if you arc a business major or a social work major, the energy outlook is of chief concern. There arc many substitutes for oil wc arc finding Out everyday and the most appealing source of fuel may soon be Solar Energy. Unlike Nuclear power. Solar Energy docs not give off any type of radiation harmful to humans. And unlike coal. Solar energy does not pollute the atmosphere. In Jackson County a couple is experimenting with solar energy by building a solar greenhouse. Dr. Allen Moore and his wife Joyce are in the process of attaching the solar greenhouse to their house which will in turn, cut dow n on their fuel bills. A solar greenhouse is a greenhouse that maintains 1-524-6677 Franklin. N.C. Foreign Auto Repair above freezing temperatures without using other sources of heat. This involves using an air tight structure, extra insulation, certain angle setting of the bouse and a storage receptor. A fish tank is being used in this case as the storage receptor. The water in the tank absorbs heat from the sun and when the sun goes down a night or when it is cloudy, then the warm water provides the heat. Another reason that the Moore's arc converting to solar energy is that they arc planning for the future. Kignt now they are usmj> a wood stove for part of their light on heating costs.
