Can you HEAT & POWER a big house with RENEWABLES? | FULLY CHARGED for clean energy & electric cars.

Energy Efficiency No Comments »

LIKE if you like the idea of heating & powering your house without burning anything and SHARE if you think all new houses should be built with renewable technologies.

Robert visits the inspiring, and award-winning, Moonstone House:
https://themoonstoneproject.co.uk/
to find out how this massive property uses zero burnt energy and in fact is actually generating power.
It is bursting with new technology, is being constantly updated and is a true insight into a future where all new and normal houses are free from fossil fuels.

Electric cars are touted as a solution for reducing emissions and improving the environmental impacts of transportation, but are electric cars actually any better for the environment than gasoline cars? This video looks to answer three main questions:
1) Doesn’t EV battery production cause a lot of emissions?
2) Don’t electric cars get their power from fossil fuels?
3) Isn’t lithium mining terrible for the environment?
