“The future is full of exciting and lucrative possibilities because
of better techniques for converting and using energy,” says Amory Lovins
of Rocky Mountain Institute. Higher efficiency through smarter technology,
he says, “would be by far the cheapest way to get hot showers and cold
beer.”

From the time that Albert Einstein discovered the electric bulb, and the time that other men who have changed the way we look at life, made their discoveries, technology began to show its light in mans life. It brought with it an entirely new scope of the things man is able to do. A man a century ago would not believe the look of the world to day! The Wright brothers and Montegolfier brothers opened the way to the skies. And we ore to them and every man and woman who have made leisure life possible our gratitude. Technology with no doubt has simplified the way we live our lives. Communication is no longer a matter of months or years but a key click away. Now a days you choose where you want to go and when and be sure to arrive your destination as planned, no more 15 years trip unless you are off to space. Tech may be the best way to walk a century or even a millennium, but it is the same subject in mind that has created brain eating problems yet to be solved! No one is not familiar with acid rains, global warming and ozone depletion. These are matters in every broadcast and media, perhaps in every communication technology such as this one. And to this date 12-aug-2001 very few if any of the created problems have been solved. For every problem there is a solution that is definite and indeed every thing that goes in a bottles mouth must come out. To these problems the solutions may not be easy, and the only hope we have is to let technology figure its way to correct its errors. Some solutions have turned up, such as the reduction of fossil fuel consumption by substituting it with renewable energies such as solar energy; wind power; hydro power; and nuclear power. Our mission now is to bring the most efficiency out of the available sources and to keep these sources out of pollution as well. The best solution may be hard to find but lets hope it will be found. This may be sooner or later than we expect so...Constant vigilance! |
