OUR MISSION IS TO BRING THE POWER OF THE SUN TO THE MASSES WHILE ALSO EDUCATING THEM ON THE DANGERS OF RELYING ON FOSSIL FUELS AS A SOURCE OF ENERGY.

We are selling clothing and accessories that represent our passion and love for the environment, and a portion of each sale will be donated to the preservation of our local land and oceans.

FOSSIL FUELS AND THEIR EFFECTION THE ENVIRONMENT

The extraction and conversion of fossil fuels has a negative impact on the environment and produces excessive pollution. These practices are irreversible and damages our health, the land, the flora, the waterways, and other areas.

Fossil fuels, or hydrocarbons, are non-renewable and currently supply around 80% of the world’s energy. The reason they are so destructive is because coal, oil and natural gas produce large quantities of carbon dioxide when burned. When hydrocarbons are burned in the presence of oxygen, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that contributes significantly to global warming.

AIR

Carbon dioxide (Co2) is a colorless, odorless greenhouse gas that plays an important role in the composition of our planet’s atmosphere. It is the fourth most abundant gas in dry air and acts as a protective layer around the planet, trapping vital radiant heat. Too much CO2 in the atmosphere, on the other hand, produces an abundance of heat, which is the primary cause of global warming.

LAND

Fossil fuels are mined both on the surface and deep underground. Both are equally detrimental to the environment but suffer different outcomes. Surface mining, also known as strip mining, requires the removal of rock and soil to reach the deposits, depleting the flora and destroying natural habitats. Deep underground mining necessitates the use of heavy machinery to burrow deep into the Earth to extract deposits. When the miners finish their work, they frequently abandon the shafts, resulting in dangerous conditions as they deteriorate.

SEA

Burning fossil fuels is causing a condition in our oceans called Ocean Acidification. As CO2 is released in the atmosphere, it settles in the sea water and forms Carbonic Acid. The rise in acidity in the ocean’s harms marine life, in particular shellfish. Fin fish then feed on the shellfish causing illnesses and death in some species thus diminishing their population.
