More About Me
I'm passionate about
Bringing positive change in the society through the appropriate use of technology
An idea worth spreading
Tapping Alternate Energy:-The day we start using energy extensively, energy crisis would be solved to a great extent ( to say further would be an exaggeration!). Among various forms already talked about(like solar, wind etc.) there are unconventional ways in which it has been harnessed. For eg:- a research farm in rural India has successfully made an electrolyte out of cow's urine, which can glow a bulb for about 28 hours in 1lt. of urine. Although the electrolyte component may not be acceptable by many but the idea is truly unconventional & thats what defines true innovators! Many such forms if brought to use in our daily life, would really solve the energy crisis to a great extent.
