The Trending Green Energy:
What is trending?
I am sure you will never say green energy because that sounds very immoral. After all they are life saving and planet saving inventions of the modern era that our future depends upon. Unless you realize that both the technology and threat are more than 100 years old. 21st century is just the start of its public appearance. For example:
- World’s first full scale electric car was introduced in 1881.
- World first solar panel in 1954.
- World’s First Wind Turbine to generate electricity was introduced in 1887
- First hydrogen fuel cell in 1839.
- First incinerator was built in 1874 to generate energy from waste.
- Global warming, carbon emissions or greenhouse gasses first identified in 1896.
So why are we talking about them only now?
I know for a technology to develop or a threat to be confirmed time and research is needed; but to be honest even now these technologies are not at their best and the threats, still there are people who don’t believe it is real including some heads of states.
We are 21st century modern, free and almost global citizens however still we do not have the right to vote for our secure future.. For example: Why is a life threatening issue such as climate change kept unimportant for more than a century? who decided to grow the combustion engine car industry instead of electric once? how they made us dependent and fund development of industries running on fossil fuels instead of old school green energy?
Maybe talking about all of this is not important as they are topics of the past; but we must ask why green energy suddenly became so important now ?, why is all the money in the world being invested in a 100 year old technology? and why those copying 100 year old technologies or acting late upon a 100 year old threat are titled as future visionaries and saviors?
Knowing the capacity and ability of the 21st century world makes me wonder what unknown inventions of our era will be trending in the upcoming centuries ?
