Chasing the Sun is Neville Williams’ inspiring account of his twelve year quest to bring solar power and light to people in the developing world who have no electricity. This book describes the founding of the non-profit Solar Electric Light Fund (SELF) in 1990 which promoted solar power for a decade by setting up pilot solar rural electrification programs in eleven developing countries, including Zimbabwe, India, Nepal, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and China. This project led to the authors launching of the commercial Solar Electric Light Company in 1997 which became the 'SELCO' group of companies that has overcome daunting challenges to bring solar electricity to 50,000 families in India, Sri Lanka and Vietnam.
Chasing the Sun asks why if millions of people in the developing world can utilize solar energy, why we in developed countries such as Australia cannot? Pick up your copy of chasing the Sun today to become inspired about solar energy.

Right now, the rate of global warming may be 100 times faster than it has ever been. Very soon, the Earth will become hotter than at any time in human history. As the continents warm and the ice at the poles melt, oceans will rise, droughts will devastate crops, and entire species of plants and animals will become extinct. It now seems evident that this extremely rapid warming is being caused by us, the humans, rather than by geological or astronomical processes that were going on before we arrived.

Crimes Against Nature is an impassioned account of how Bush and big business are plundering the environment and raking in the profits. Robert F Kennedy Jr, one of the world's most prominent environmental lawyers charges the White House with the crime of pursuing private profit and personal power at the expense of clean air, clean water and wildlife habitats.
He shows how, in a government that boasts more CEOs than any in history, industry lobbyists wield an unprecedented power and politicians have rolled back environmental laws, suppressed damaging reports from their own departments and covered its own agenda with smart PR.
Written in the belief that there is another way, Crimes Against Nature powerfully makes the case for democracy against the corrosive effects of corporate corruption.

Guerrilla Gardening outlines the power-to-the-people campaign for greening our cities. The term 'guerrilla' may bring to mind a small band of armed soldiers, moving in the dead of night on a stealth mission. In the case of guerrilla gardening, the soldiers are planters, the weapons are shovels, and the mission is to transform an abandoned lot into a thing of beauty. Once an environmentalist's nonviolent direct action for inner-city renewal, this approach to urban beautification is spreading to all types of people in cities around the world.
These modern-day Johnny Appleseeds perform random acts of gardening, often without the property owner's prior knowledge or permission. Typical targets are vacant lots, railway land, underused public squares, and back alleys. The concept is simple, whimsical and has the cheeky appeal of being a not-quite-legal call to action. Dig in some soil, plant a few seeds, or mend a sagging fence one good deed inspiring another, with win-win results all around.
Tips for effective involvement include:
finding plants and seeds cheap (or free)
handling city officials
getting the dirt on soil
planting to bring back the birds
knowing when to ask permission and when to seek forgiveness
Social activists, city dwellers and long-time gardeners will delight in this fast-paced and funny call to arms.

Morningstar’s Remote Temperature Sensor (RTS) provides improved battery charging in solar systems that experience temperature variations during the year. The RTS measures temperature at the battery and the controller uses this data for very accurate temperature compensation. Use of the RTS is recommended whenever the temperature at the battery will be more than 5°C (9°F) different than the temperature at the controller. The TriStar has no on-board temperature compensation; therefore the use of the RTS is required for temperature compensated charging. Other Morningstar controllers will default to an on-board temperature sensor if a RTS is not connected.
The RTS is compatible with the following Morningstar controllers:
• ProStar™ (soldering required)
• TriStar™
• SunKeeper™
• SunSaver Duo™
• SunSaver MPPT™
For maximum protection from harsh environments, the sensor is encapsulated in epoxy inside a power lug housing. The RTS is also protected from lightning surges and short circuits.
Morningstar’s SunGuard is an extremely efficient and reliable single module controller. They have combined all the advantages of their SunSaver charging circuit with less expensive packaging to provide an economical controller for small PV systems.
Rated Solar Current: 4.5 A

Concerns over climate change and energy depletion are increasing exponentially. Mainstream solutions still assume a panacea that will cure our climate ills without requiring any serious modification to our way of life.
Plan C explores the risks inherent in trying to continue our energy-intensive lifestyle. Using dirtier fossil fuels (Plan A) or switching to renewable energy sources (Plan B) allows people to remain complacent in the face of potential global catastrophe. Dramatic lifestyle change is the only way to begin to create a sustainable, equitable world.
The converging crises of Peak Oil, Climate Change and increasing inequity are presented in a clear, concise manner, as are the twin solutions of community (where cooperation replaces competition) and curtailment (deliberately reducing consumption of consumer goods). Plan C shows how each person's individual choices can dramatically reduce CO2 emissions. It offers specific strategies in the areas of food, transportation and housing.
Plan C is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in living a lower-energy and sustainable lifestyle.

The StarLux LED Down Light is the brightest LED halogen downlight replacement.The fitting is the same but the savings are very different. The StarLux LED only uses about 10% of the energy and heat output, which means you save around 90% on your lighting bill.The Starlux light is made in Korea by one of the world's leading LED
light technology companies and Starlux is the name that Todae gives this
range for the Australian market.
Todae's leading LED downlight, the StarLux12v MR16 LED downlight, is a cost effective and easy way to reduce your carbon footprint and save on your power bills. It uses approximately 10% of the energy of a 50 watt halogen downlight (saving up to 90% of your lighting costs) and can pay for itself in one to two years.The Starlux light is made in Korea by one of the world's leading LED light technology companies and Starlux is the name that Todae gives this range for the Australian market.The Todae Starlux LED emits a similar amount of the light to a standard 50 watt halogen globe and can be fitted in seconds (with a compatible transformer in place).The warm white Starlux Downlights come in two different beam angles: 80° and 50°. The 50° beam angle is more suited to high ceilings as it ensures that the light doesn't lose its brightness as it is dispersed around the room, while the 80° beam angle is excellent for lower ceilings as it light stays bright as it is fills the room. With a lifespan of approximately 50,000 hours (50 times longer than a halogen), the light bulb will pay for itself and then continue saving you money on power bills. How do I know whether this bulb is compatible with my downlight fittings? This is an MR16 fitting - with two sharp pins on the base. If your current bulbs have thick cyclinger shapes on the end of the pins, it is a GU10 fitting.All MR16 12v bulbs require a transformer.Transformer compatibility: The StarLux is compatible with most downlight transformers, but may not work on some. Please be aware that to achieve the maximum energy efficiency, cost savings and life-span from an LED bulb, LED specific transformers should be used. They do use less energy and run cooler than standard halogen transformers.We highly recommend the Redback transformer for use with the Starlux. Note that transformers must be installed by an electrician.

The Hype about Hydrogen offers an accessible explanation of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies. It takes a hard look at the practical difficulties of transitioning to a hydrogen economy and reveals why neither government policy nor business investment should be based on the belief that hydrogen cars will have meaningful commercial success in the near or medium term.
Joseph Romm argues that hydrogen is not economically feasible to use for transportation, nor will its use reduce global warming, because of the cost and greenhouse gases generated during production, the low energy content per volume and weight of the container, the cost of the fuel cells, and the cost of the infrastructure.
Get yourself a copy of The Hype about Hydrogen today to cut out the hype and find out the facts about hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.
