Amazing! Earth 2100

Last night on ABC prime time television ran a 2 hour show titled, Earth 2100. It was amazing. According to top minded scientists, it is our likely future! Our future is scary –>

*Everyone* should seriously consider going green –>

Ways to Go Green

Also, one could consider starting a green business. It’s the future. It’s a booming industry. Make $$$ while being a good person.

Ways to Go Green

Green money savers:

  • Set your thermostat a few degrees lower in the winter, and a few degrees higher in the summer to save on heating and cooling costs. Use comfortable fuzzy blankets. :-)
  • Install compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs). Out here in the USA, almost all bargain stores such as the 99¢ Stores sell brand new CFLs for 99 cents. Online stores such as Amazon Stores have good bargains such 8 CFLs for $10.49, or 16 dimmable  CFLs for $18.99.
  • Wash clothes in cold water as much as possible. As much as 85% of the energy used to machine-wash clothes goes to heating the water.
  • Unplug appliances when you’re not using them. Or, use a “smart” power strip that senses when appliances are off and cuts “phantom” or “vampire” energy use.
  • Use a clothesline or drying rack instead of the drying machine to save energy. Do *NOT*experimental proof. use dryer balls, as they take longer drying time. Here’s the
  • Make sure you have a faucet aerator on each faucet. These inexpensive appliances conserve heat and water, while keeping water pressure high.
  • Install a low-flow shower head. They don’t cost much, and the water and energy savings can quickly pay back your investment.
  • Take shorter showers to reduce water use. This will lower your water and heating bills too.
  • Plant drought-tolerant native plants in your garden. Many plants need minimal watering. Find out which occur naturally in your area.
  • Walk or bike to work. This saves on gas and parking costs while improving your cardiovascular health and reducing your risk of obesity.
  • Consider telecommuting if you live far from your work. Or move closer. Even if this means paying more rent, it could save you money in the long term.
  • Use a water filter to purify tap water instead of buying bottled water. Not only is bottled water expensive, but it generates large amounts of container waste.
  • Bring a *reusable* water bottle, preferably aluminum rather than plastic, with you when traveling or at work.
  • Wear clothes that don’t need to be dry-cleaned. This saves money and cuts down on toxic chemical use.

Green environmental help:

  • If you eat meat, add one meatless meal a week. Meat costs a lot at the store, and it’s even more expensive when you consider the related environmental and health costs.
  • Buy locally raised, humane, and organic meat, eggs, and dairy whenever you can. Purchasing from local farmers keeps money in the local economy.
  • Borrow from libraries instead of buying personal books and movies. This saves money, not to mention the ink and paper that goes into printing new books.
  • Donate or recycle electronics (e.g., cell phones & computers) responsibly when the time comes. E-waste contains mercury and other toxics and is a growing environmental problem.

Most of the above tips was from a great website, worldwatch.org

Diode power figures

Given if the diodes are truly converting ambient thermal energy into usable energy, then a conservative power figure per diode is 1nW. Such diode array fabrication does *not* require 100% flawless productions since a broken diode merely cuts out that entire line of diodes, which might be 100 diodes in-series. Semiconductor chip fabrication does *not* create each component at a time. The *entire* semiconductor chip is created at the same time, or more specifically each layer is created simultaneously. A diode array chip may require less than 10 layers.

So an entire diode array chip 1 meter by 1 meter would be created at once. Given present technology, each diode could easily be 50nm by 50nm. A one square meter chip with 100nm from diode to diode would contain 10 million by 10 million diodes for a total of 100 trillion diodes. At 1nW per diode, the total power comes to 100000 watts or 100KW!

With large production, the retail market price per 100KW chip could be a few hundred US dollars, coming to $0.002 or 0.2 cents per watt. There is far far far lower than solar cells, no comparison. Furthermore, there’s no comparison in that solar cells rely upon good weather, no clouds, day time, will not work at night, will not work inside, must be pointing toward sun. Whereas diode array chips would work at any hospitable location on Earth, even inside a cave at night.

2LoT -> 2ToT

One day 2LoT (2nd Law of Thermodynamics) will be known as 2ToT (2nd Tendency of Thermodynamics). My diode research has proven the 2nd law of thermodynamics is a tendency, not a low.
