Excellent Discussion on Solar Thermal Energy

An excellent post on the always excellent Low Tech Magazine website discusses the uses of Solar Thermal energy. Speaking in an Indian context, I have written about how some Indian states are doing a good job offering incentives for apartment buildings that use solar water heaters. I have also written about how religious bodies in India including the Shirdi Sai Baba complex and some others have begun using solar power to cook food for devotees. The potential to do much more than this exists. Please click on the link to learn how.

And, follow the Low Tech Magazine website. It is well worth checking out from time to time.

Back Blogging After a Long Hiatus

I have been off this blog for a long time - not because I tired of it or anything like that, but because I was simply overwhelmed with work. It was difficult managing my academic pursuits with earning money and blogging. As I have temporarily put university work aside and persuaded my school to put me on probation so that I might rejoin later, I am back. Hopefully, I shall have something of value to contribute and be able to interact with more people interested in the same issues that interest me.
