Today, in directly harnessing the power of the Sun, we're taking the energy that God gave us, the most renewable energy that we will ever see, and using it to replace our dwindling supplies of fossil fuels.
The sun is the source of all energy on planet Earth and we cannot experiment with our only energy source.
Everything we eat begins with a plant turning solar energy into carbohydrates. Everything. Whether we're eating meat or eating vegetables, it all begins there. So I'm always interested in taking things back to the beginning.
If we could convert 0.03 percent of the sunlight that falls on the earth into energy, we could meet all of our projected needs for 2030.
Curiously, light-loving green plants reject the Sun's green light, reflecting it back at you, which is why they look green.
The sun is all about the world we see, the breath and strength of every spring.
We owe our lives to the sun... How is it, then, that we feel no gratitude?
We live in a world bathed in 5,000 times more energy than we consume as a species in the year, in the form of solar energy. It's just not in usable form yet.
The source of this energy is the sun's radiation.
I have no doubt that we will be successful in harnessing the sun's energy.... If sunbeams were weapons of war, we would have had solar energy centuries ago.
All of us know that the energy from the sun can now be harnessed, and we need to convert it sensibly to use it.
The harness of waterfalls is the most economical method known for drawing energy from the sun.
Photographs are the results of a diminution of solar energy, and the camera is an entropic machine for recording gradual loss of light.
