Your course choices should depend on your career objectives, and where you are weakest. A tech positon will most likely require drafting, and good computer skills are essential no matter what type of engineering you choose. If you are...

Hey there, I was just wondering how much of the incoming solar energy is absorbed by our atmosphere, as I know that this is a significant portion. I saw a documentary where some experts on energy conservation were considering the idea of putting a...
As Mis37N noted; about 30% of the solar radiation is reflected back out into space. Of the remaining radiation, about 2/3 (ie, about 45% of the total) makes it to the ground. That means that the atmosphere absorbs about 25% of the solar...

How does painting our roofs white decrease the global warming?
Doesn't conservation of energy apply here?

The whole idea of painting a roof white is just insane, but more rational consideration of your roofing material will lower your electricity bill.

Solar power development in US Southwest could threaten wildlife
Solar power development in US Southwest could threaten wildlife Environmental impacts of planned installations largely unknown
Government agencies are considering scores of applications to develop utility-scale solar power installations in the desert Southwest of the United States, but too little is known to judge their likely effects on wildlife, according to an article published in the December 2011 issue of BioScience . Although solar power is often seen as a "green" energy technology, available information suggests a worrisome range of possible impacts. These concern wildlife biologists because the region is a hotspot of biodiversity and includes many endangered or protected species, notably Agassiz's desert tortoise. It and another tortoise, Morafka's, dig burrows that shelter many other organisms.
Does NYC Want Solar Energy? | Room Eight
Gotham Gazette has a story on New York City's goal of creating a green economy. As it happens, I had solar panels installed on my roof last year, receiving massive federal, state and local subsidies for doing do. But part of the subsidy was absorbed by the cost of bureaucracy. From the time I signed a contract until the time the final inspection was completed, the solar project took nearly a year. But the actual installation of the solar panels and equipment took just ONE DAY, in part because the contractor was good, and in part because I had planned for it, timing solar installation with the need for a new roof.
Con Edison was responsible for almost none of the hold-up. The state took a long time to approve the subsidy payment, perhaps because funding for alternative energy has been raided and there isn't enough to go around.
