safer panels and ones that are recyclable. We have advanced in emissions with cars over the years so solar can definitely be improved too. I think we are at a point where many agree that fossil fuels need to be decreased world wide for the sake of our planet, but finding the best method will take time. I like wind, though I know there are things people don't like about that, but I would love to be able to afford a windmill to power my home. It would definitely have the gadget that keeps birds from flying into it. :)
