Climate Change is a Fact http://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/

Climate Change by human activity is a ‘Fact’ “In science, 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms.” Stephen Jay Gould

Climate Change by human activity is a ‘Fact’ “97% of actively publishing scientists agree: Climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities. In addition, most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have issued public statements endorsing this position.” http://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/

Storing Electrical Energy http://www.awea.org/Issues/Content.aspx?ItemNumber=5452

Demonstrating Energy Storage 1 F, 5 V Arbor Scientific $25 US Sargent Welch.ca $69 CAN

Demonstrating Solar Power 1.5 V, 200 mA $16 Kidder (53 $/W) 0.45 V, 200 mA, $19 Boreal (211 $/W)

Demonstrating Solar Power $1.29 Solar Powered Garden Light

Demonstrating EM Generation The faster the axle spins, the more energy. This is hard to do with a simple hobby motor. It is much easier if the motor is geared.

Demonstrating EM Generation These motors were part of the Lego Mindstorm robotic kits in the 90’s, eBay $15 to $100!
