Recently wrote an article on the "green" effect, i just wanted to know what people think.... so more of leisure reading for those who are at least a bit passionate about the planet.
Very good article, alexander
It seems like every commercial I see now days is Green this or Green that, and you know they didn't clean up there act in the last six months, I'm with you on this if they aren't Green..... and that solar panel production plant that Cedars posted (good link, Thanks) from the article
Quote:
Last year, the Luoyang Zhonggui factory was estimated to have produced less than 300 tons of polysilicon, but it aims to increase that tenfold this year <--> For each ton of polysilicon produced, the process generates at least four tons of silicon tetrachloride liquid waste. <--> The tests show high concentrations of chlorine and hydrochloric acid, which can result from the breakdown of silicon tetrachloride and do not exist naturally in soil. "Crops cannot grow on this, and it is not suitable for people to live nearby," said Li Xiaoping, deputy director of the Shanghai Academy of Environmental Sciences.
You'd think this was a race, to see how fast we can destroy the planet.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
