The Solar Advocate – Larry Waitz
An essential guidebook in discovering the power and practicalities of solar energy, The Solar Advocate by author, educator, and solar supporter Larry Waitz is a watershed of information, a warning light to make changes in how we approach our energy needs, and a call to arms. As an environmental activist, he asks us to consider the future, which by the end of his debut tutorial readers will agree is now. So if you are a builder or a businessperson, a student of environmental sciences or a concerned citizen of the world, the future is here—let’s build it.
While solar energy is available across the entire country, we don’t all know how to use it, or why we should. Outlining solar facts with the most current options of infrastructure, in sixty-seven engaging chapters with titles like “Types of Solar Thermal Systems,” “Grid Tied Versus Off the Grid,” “Solar Computer Design,” and “Renewable Energy—Hydropower,” the author shows readers how solar energy works and why it’s cost effective. Complemented by easy to interpret graphs and charts, this succinct narrative to go green and live green is written in laymen’s terms and introduces over three hundred key solar facts, products, and emerging technologies to assist readers in their journey around the sun. So whether you want to electrify homes or heat potable water, this guide has answers, because solar power doesn’t just have great potential—solar power is the future.
