Amazing how the windmills protect the Dutch from devastating flood and hurricane considering Holland is below sea level. Their engineering technology dates back prehistoric times. I have a vivid recollection of their canned milk sold in our groceries with their windmills on the label. Where I came from after two days of rain most of the barangays are flooded. It’s happening years after years. I blame our political system where only elected government officials monetarily benefitted from their own malfeasance but comes rainy days they travel the same public roads with flood water with their late model SUVs or cars. What is behind the US billion-dollar boondoggle Bataan Nuclear Power Plant to power up the region? My answer is graft and corruption of our elected and appointed government officials. When there is flood water the stream of commerce, agricultural and fishing industries are sufferings. Aside from tulips, windmills are trademarks of Holland.

Do you know of anyone whom I can contact for solar panel installation? I've been thinking of this for almost 3 years now but I don't know if there is any stores nearby my place in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. Is it expensive? Is it easy to install? Any pros and cons? Thanks I’d like to save money from big Meralco bills. Do you know of anyone whom I can contact for solar panel installation?

Is it expensive?
Is it easy to install?
Any pros and cons?

Thanks

Same with cost comparison of sustainable food production and industrial agribusiness. The cost of cleaning up the contamination of the watertable, waterways and eventually the oceans due to use of massive quantities of fertilizers (which btw are also derived from fossil fuels) are simply and conveniently ignored. These Northerly spots you have been featuring lately definitely make it worth a detour from the usual Manila-focused trip back home. The Kapuluan Resort seems unmissable.

There are literally hundreds , possibly thousands of wind turbines woven almost like a garden patch. There are even eco-adventure tours to explain the mechanics, history, uses of wind energy, etc. and takes one up close and personal with these modern windmills. Truly amazing modern man invention!!
