Happy Earth Day! This is one of my favorite days of the year, so allow me to tell you a story. Back in 1970, Earth Day got its start. It happened again in 1980, and then again in 1990. That struck me as wrong: Why only dedicate one of 3650 days to celebrating our planet? Alongside Senator Gaylord Nelson and others, I helped make Earth Day an annual event. And slowly but surely, the movement to protect our planet has grown. Now, after decades of sounding the alarm, we have more momentum than ever to curb emissions and embrace sustainable, clean energy technologies. That’s certainly good news. At the same time, it’s challenging to ensure that these technologies are built with environmentally-friendly materials – and can be used for the long haul. The theme of this year’s Earth Day is Planet vs. Plastics. When I started 247Solar, Inc, I was determined to build a technology that didn’t just generate clean energy, but used safe, reusable materials. So I’m proud to say they there are absolutely no plastics in our 247Solar Plants™. Our system – which uses mirrors and a receiver tower to harness the power of the sun – is made of mostly recyclable materials and operates for decades without replacement. Additionally, we don’t use molten salts or other environmentally hazardous materials. And if our Plants are ever decommissioned, they can be readily disassembled. Most components can either be recycled or re-used. This Earth Day, I’m encouraged by the progress we’re making on renewable technology. Now, we need to ensure that it’s sustainable. #solar #renewableenergy #cleanpower #solarisnow #energytransition #earthday

🌍 Happy World Environment Day! Today and every day, we reaffirm our commitment to sustainability, specifically by reducing energy and water consumption and prompting the shift towards electric transportation. This is more than just a commitment; it’s a fundamental part of our business strategy. At our Dunkirk gigafactory, we have implemented strategies to minimize environmental impact, such as installing solar panels and collecting rainwater to reduce our water usage. By adopting these high-efficiency energy processes and creating a recycling value chain, we aim to cut carbon emissions by 83.8% over the next ten years. 🔋 Let's build a sustainable future together! What steps are you taking to protect the environment today and the rest of the year? #WorldEnvironmentDay #Sustainability #GreenFuture #ProLogium

The Next Environmental Crisis: 50 Million Tons of Fiber waste by 2050 🚯 Did you know that the #blades of #wind turbines, those green giants symbolizing clean energy, generate a significant environmental problem? It is estimated that by 2050, decommissioned blades will produce nearly 50 million tons of fiber waste. Currently, a substantial portion of these blades ends up buried in landfills, raising serious environmental concerns. And right now, we are only seeing the beginning of this issue as the oldest wind farms are being dismantled. Soon, the number of blades that will need to be decommissioned will increase dramatically. But, is this the only way? No! The solution is in our hands and it’s called sustainable innovation. The company Voodin Blade Technology is leading the change by developing #recyclable blades. This advancement not only reduces the burden on landfills but also brings us closer to a circular economy, where materials are reused and reintegrated into the production cycle. It’s time for the wind industry to embrace these solutions and for all of us, as a society, to support these innovations. The future of our planet depends on the decisions we make today. 🌍 #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #Innovation #CircularEconomy #WindEnergy #wood

Your carbon footprint measures what you take from the planet, but your carbon handprint shows what you give back. Which one are you focused on? We often hear about reducing our carbon footprint. But have you heard of the carbon handprint? 🌱 While the footprint is about reducing harm, the handprint is about creating positive impact. It’s the difference you make by actively contributing to solutions that benefit the planet – like using renewable energy, developing sustainable products, or encouraging eco-friendly practices at work. It’s about helping the planet heal. The goal is not just to minimize our footprint but to maximize our handprint. #CarbonFootprint #CarbonHandprint #Sustainability #ClimateAction #ESG #PositiveImpact #GoGreen
