PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Over the past two centuries, humans learned to harness fossil fuels on a vast scale to power an industrial revolution. This quantum advance in machine automation, mass production and labor division drove unparalleled improvements in the health, economics and comforts of citizens of industrialized nations. But today, the benefits come at great, unpaid environmental costs. Fossil fuels cannot continue to be humanity’s primary source of energy. It’s time for an energy foundation in harmony with the planet. It’s time for a solar revolution.
