[LakelandARC] Re: Field day preperation

Excess energy consumption is not the only concern these days. What about excess food consumption. Solar is great, but it is passive. How about generating energy in a more active way, like exercise? Human energy can be used to generate power to operate a radio station. That energy would come from calories burned, and not only benefit the environment, but the energy producer him or herself. By using human energy we can become producers as well as consumers.

  Hi group!

  I'm totally in agreement with Mike on this issue. We are all caretakers 
  of our planet but must be careful to make wise choices when media hype 
  is involved. 

  The idea of a green field day not only displays the club's concern for 
  the enviornment but also gives us good experience in working under 
  adverse conditions when solar, wood or other alternative sources of 
  energy is our only option. Let's hear some ideas from other members of 
  the club on this subject.
