Ok ideas for new inventions..... what about solar kites so you could fly a kite and collect power while having fun...
Or white roof tiles so that our towns would reflect some of the suns rays...
The best ideas are the simple ones and the white roof concept is getting some press at the moment!!
'Using white materials on on top of buildings in the world's 100 largest cities would do more to counter planet-warming greenhouse-gas emissions, scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and University of California, Berkeley say.
White roofs, a common feature on the Greek island of Santorini, have been used for thousands of years to reflect heat. Applying the method worldwide would cool surface temperatures, helping offset warming caused by carbon-dioxide emissions from factories and vehicles, the researchers said.'
Lots of small steps can make Great strides!
