Moreover, Canadian Solar is providing solar

Bo Haeberle, with his friends invented an innovative bird feeder that worked on solar power. The feeder used a small solar panel in its roof to build an electric charge. The Solar feeder's purpose is to use the mild electric shock it generates to repel the squirrels, preventing them from stealing the bird seed or damaging the feeder itself. In a typical product-driven approach, Bo and his friends started SDI, Inc. to produce and promote the solar feeder without having done any marketing plan. After several years of perseverance and some recognition & rewards, however the company finds itself running out of money. And the company also realizes the need to develop a marketing plan in order to attack the $843 million market for bird feeders,

The use of solar power as a policy choice is based on the fact that it is an

Ed Welsh and Bo Haeberle discovered an idea of the solar feeder. After years of developing, the product became very successful. It even won several prizes like the best new product in the Bird Watch America trade show, the national birding convention. After this, Ed and Bo decided to sell their final product under new established company Squirrel Defense, Inc. They opened a small shop in Greensboro and begin the production of the solar feeder so they could take orders for the demanded product. Owners spent too much money and time on developing the product and now, their expectations are high because they have an advantage of unique product and even the investors showed interest in the company.

Keeping in mind the end goal to accomplish this objective of cleaner energy I propose the plan of solar panels on government structures in New Jersey. With your organizations financing, backing, and administrative resources, I am certain that this target can be accomplished. Currently, "regular gas is giving expanding measures of power, with coal and renewables creating under one-tenth of

The state government of Gujarat proposed a massive project to the central government of India in the year 2010. The project was to build the biggest solar park in Asia. The project was approved and the project is in commission from the year 2012. This project is part of many planned projects that would help the country achieve its 2020 green goal.

The Solar Sprint is a competition where several teams of two students build a car powered by a solar panel and race them, and the top 3 teams get to go to Cocoa Beach and race other students from different schools across the state. There are a total of 7 sessions, 1 rules/informative session, 5 building sessions, and the final session is the actual race. To be eligible to go to Cocoa Beach, the team participating must be in the 6th grade, but any team 6-8th grade could participate in the races at the school.

There are countless times in history when individuals have stood up for what is right against those committing wrongdoings. Standing up against your country’s wrongdoings; however, is the ultimate form of morality. In the span of this nation, there are few individuals with enough courage to report illegal and unconstitutional acts committed by the government. These individuals are known as whistle blowers. In 2004, a US Justice Office attorney by the name of Thomas Tamm took action by making an anonymous call to the New York Times about illegal government activity. Tamm’s call took a lot of guts and let US citizens know that their privacy will always be protected by those who do what is right.

As a product Manager at The Citizen Sun, a daily newspaper company founded in 1913, I was tasked with creating an idea that would drive revenue growth, readership and traffic for the company. The company was experiencing an 11% decline in sales for the last three years and was seeking a big change or feature that could be implemented in the next 12 weeks. There were many factors to be considered in creating this initiative, including existing competition, current market trends that projected a 4% decline in annual sales, consumer’s newspaper consumption formats of paper vs. Digital and limitations in company resources. I was allowed $50,000 to develop an initiative that would be cost effective and would meet the time constraint. Upon trying

Open City, although not the most-action filled novel, expresses globalization and its implications regarding transnational identity in a powerfully subtle way. The obvious aspect of the novel that expresses both globalization and transnationality is Julius’ background. His father is from Nigeria, his mother is half German and half American, he spent part of his childhood growing up in Nigeria where he attended a privileged, upper class school, and he moved to the United States where he went to medical school, living in the Upper West Side. His different backgrounds express the fact that he is transnational; however, to see how those elements translate into his identity, one must look into Julius’ observations, interactions, and thoughts. Julius is incredibly detached from people, and arguably, his emotions; the only person Julius is mildly

This paper explores the merger of Tesla and SolarCity. Tesla is the most successful electric car company and has won multiple awards for its’s product offerings. SolarCity is the largest residential and commercial solar installer in the United States. Tesla is a successful car company but is still plagued with financial concerns due to its upcoming mass market car, the Model 3, and its battery plant, the Gigafactory. SolarCity has its own financial woes as last year it posted revenues of just $1.5 billion while amassing $3 billion in debt. These financial troubles have investors worried. Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and Chairman of SolarCity, believes that by leveraging SolarCity’s installation network and Tesla’s global retail footprint, that the merger will create significant value for its shareholders. Synergies of the merger will allow Tesla to achieve a competitive advantage and lead the way in clean energy product innovation much in the way Tesla has done with electric cars. Investors and analyst are also worried about corporate governance concerns as Elon Musk is the CEO of Tesla as well as the chairman of SolarCity. Lyndon Rive, SolarCity CEO, is also the cousin of Musk. Time will tell if Tesla and SolarCity can successfully merge and create the world’s first vertically integrated energy company.

Solar energy is the most plentiful and purist renewable energy source available. Because it is completely natural, it is considered to be a clean energy source. It does not disrupt the environment or threaten the Eco-systems the way oil and some other energy sources tend to. Nor does it cause greenhouse gases, air or water pollution. Solar energy is an immensely important aspect of life and has been since the beginning of time. Increasingly, we are learning how to harness this important resource and use it to replace traditional energy sources. Modern technology can utilize this energy in a variety of ways, such as; generating electricity, providing light or a comfortable interior environment, and heating water for domestic, industrial, or commercial use. One day solar energy may well become our primary form of energy. This would lead to a clean environment, less money spent on utilities, and a healthier world. It is highly important because it has the potential to allow technology and nature to co-exist peacefully.

The Future City we will be discussing is call Dratatia. It runs on water, wind, solar, and carbon dioxide power. It has no ground or air pollution, with an addition of 1,000,000 citizens. Its age is exactly 25 years old and was built 75 years in the future, with many seniors. Located floating in the Atlantic ocean. We have power running to every home and business by underground pipes. Our water comes from filters that filter the Atlantic ocean for water. We have 24 fire stations, 25 Police stations, and 26 hospitals. In the world today, senior citizens have trouble getting around.
