The only solution to the ecological and climate crises of our time is now the elimination of greenhouse gas emissions and a complete transition to producing electricity solely from renewable sources. In the shortest possible time.
Wind, geothermal, hydroelectric, solar, biomass. Extraordinary solar and photovoltaic technologies guarantee excellent efficiencies in converting the sun’s rays—rays that are evenly spread and distributed, low cost, and particularly abundant in the poorest countries of Africa or the Far East. And wind farms on land or offshore designed to set up large power plants on windy ridges or in marine parks.
Sun, earth, water, air, wind, fire: these are our energy sources for the future. But weren’t these the archè, the principle and driving force of life according to the ancient philosophers?
The very same elements we can now harness thanks to advanced technologies that have to be guided by political, social, and environmental awareness: innovative technologies that allow decentralized and low-cost energy production and energy communities with high added social value—important tools in the fight against global and widespread energy poverty. Technologies to produce clean and renewable energy, in light of the knowledge accumulated over centuries about the functioning of the Earth system.
