Solar Panels

This letter is about solar power, how it affects the environment and the good things of solar panels.

Dear President of the United States

The environment is getting out of control. If the environment gets worse, people are going to die from pollution and contamination, and the economy is going to get worse. I’ve got family and friends who are having a hard time finding work and I see that they are also having trouble with crime in their communities. This is because the economy is getting lower. One solution to this problem would be for the government to spend more money on solar technology and pay for students to learn how to install and create this technology, the technology will advance more and more. Solar energy is good for the environment and the country’s economy.

If we don't have energy, our community is not going to work how we want it to work. If the community doesn't work, everything goes down like the economy. People are going to get fired from their jobs. Many jobs need energy to help and make the world become successful. If we use solar panels, it will be better and less dangerous for the community and the societies. If the panels that convert light directly into electricity increased more and more the generation going to work very good and scientists going to get the result faster because if you don't have the power you don't have technology. The way we make our energy now, with coal, is really bad for the planet.

The government has to spend a lot of money for the country and one of the first thing and important thing in this world is technology. Every day in the year scientists are finding out and improving technology like solar energy. The government has to work very hard and intelligently to make this world become better every day.

I believe if the government spend more money and get more engineers of panels, the world is going to work much better because "the last 10 years electric output of solar panels has increased by 40 percent each year and the industry is drawing roughly $150 billion in annual investment." As we can see, technology is faster today. We want the 40% to go up, how is it going to go up? By spending money and get more engineer of solar panels. If the 40% of the several years decreased there is a problem we want the technology to advance, not to go back. As we know the population in the country are increasing more & faster, so we need more power in our country.

If the government spends more money on solar technology and pays for students to learn how to install and create this technology, the technology will advance more and more. Solar energy is good for the environment and the country’s economy. Please, President, I want you to make a change with my idea so this world can become wealthier and cleaner for everybody in the country because we are worried about the country.

Sincerely:

Yelfry Ovalle
