Solar Hot Water heating

Definition Solar
The sun is the biggest source for energy in our Solar system.
We can harvest this energy without polluting our air, our natural environment!
solar - solar energy - solar hot water - solar panel - solar catchment system - sun harvesting system
MUSIC CONTROLS:
solar energy or the energy from the sun or also called solar power can be used in many different ways. You can heat water with the sun, you can cool your house with solar electricity, you can use solar electrical panels to produce your own electricity - B+S+B Nature Conservation group helps you to understand, gives answers to your questions, gives tips how to install your hot water collector, your electric panel, your photovoltaic system
Solar hot water panel at Bear Springs Blossom Nature Preserve

Solar power (also known as solar energy)
is the technology of obtaining usable energy
from the light of the sun.
Solar energy has been used in many traditional technologies for centuries.

solar water heating is easy to install, solar power is environmentally friendly, saves you money, learn online how to use solar energy, how to install a solar hot water heater, what type of solar hot water panel to choose
Sunlight is Earth's primary source of energy.
The solar constant is the amount of power
that the Sun deposits per unit area
that is directly exposed to sunlight.
The solar constant is ~1,370 watts per square meter
or ~1273 watts per 10 square feet

Bear Springs Blossom
Nature Conservation
is using Solar energy in different ways.

YOU can do that too!
using solar energy, many facts should be checked, a list of things you should do before you buy, or order a solar photovoltaic system

We use the power of the sun:

Solar wind energy

A) to produce electricity with our windmill

Solar photovoltaics

B) to produce electricity with our Photo-voltaic systems.


sun energy brings solar flat hot water panel up to boiling water

Solar energy heats
Solar hot water panel

We give information
on all RENEWABLE ENERGY sources.
We can give you advice:
+ what prices to expect
+ how different system work
+ what system fits to your needs ..
Science: Sun power for solar hot water tubes collecting sunlight and warm the water inside the insulated tubes
Solar hot water glass tubes
are good insulated pipes that
solar energy and transform it into heat
so you have hot water - without burning
fossil fuels

We all can use the sun:

Heat (hot water, building heat, cooking)
Electricity generation (photovoltaics, heat engines)
Desalination of seawater.

Solar cooker uses the sun to heat water
our sun produces more energy than we can ever use - our Sun in Latin Sol - is a yellow dwarf - and the center of the Solar System. The Earth and other matter including other planets, asteroids, meteoroids, comets, and dust orbit the Sun, which by itself accounts for about 98.6% of the Solar System's mass. The mean distance of the Sun from the Earth is about 149,600,000 kilometers, or 92,960,000 miles, and its light travels this distance in 8.3 minutes. Energy from the Sun, in the form of sunlight, supports almost all life on Earth via photosynthesis, and drives the Earth's climate and weather

Live in Harmony with nature - use solar hot water panels collectors to heat your water at home Our Earth population is growing, climate change will endanger humans, animals and plants - with the use of solar hot water collector panels you can reduce your footprint, can lower air pollution and water pollution, providing future our children with more food and safer drinking water

Butterflies need several minutes to dry their wings in the sun, they need solar energy to flyButterflies need solar energy

Biology: Junipers, Latin juniperus ashei:  trees, shrubs found all over Earth - preferring limestone. juniperus ashei native to Texas for millions of years. Nature conservation, nature education explains why the Texas Hill Country has too many junipers. Native Texas Junipers trees grow up to 80 ft for 200 years. Texas Cedar juniper provides juniper berries for birds, makes good mulch, helps native plants to grow. Nursery plant Juniper is important for nature conservation, essential to pollution reducationJunipers
Nature conservation acts against overgrowth TX cedar, Latin juniperus ashei: Overgrazing is the reason for millions of TX Junipers. Juniper, Texas cedar, needed for nature conservation building up soil for native plants, reducing erosion. Junipers cedars are no water succersTX Cedar
Bear Springs Blossom Nature Conservation preserve has different grasses along nature trails, mostly bunch grass. Texas native state grass side oats grama reduces erosion, water pollution, healthy water for aquifersB+S+B Grasses

Mammals
Lectures + presentations: B+S+B protects oceans, whales + dolphins from overfishing to over-polluting seas. Oceans stabilize climate, whales balance the life in oceans, but are endangered by greenhouse gases. Nature conservation reduces climate change + air pollution  internationally. Earth's ocean food chain needs whales, dolphins + porpoises - earth oceans food feeds over 1 billion humans
Nature conservation news: Black bears in US for 2 million years. Black Bears, Latin Ursus americanus, US native, Southern United States black bears remain in protected mountains, woodlands, parks, preserves. Bears who wander outside nature preserves to find new habitats are endangered
History: Before humans killed all Buffalo Latin bison bison, bison roamed on US prairies without overgrazing, conserving grass prairies. America's prairies were created by Buffaloes, huge mammals, once food + living for Native Americans
Overgrazing destroys land, endangers Nature,  causing climate change + global warming. Overgrazing is related to human health problems, overgrazed meadows reduce drinking water supply, multiply water contamination. Overgrazing causes erosion, destroys the native plants food for wildlife, food supply for humans
