More often than not, nowadays, you will find more and more people who are trying to make our planet a better place to live on. There are several researchers, scientists, organizations and associations that spend their lives, trying to make our lives better by reducing energy costs and trying to make the planet a little more "green." In previous years it was said that there was a huge hole forming in the ozone from things like methane gases from garbage dumps, animals becoming extinct because of littering, and polar ice caps melting and collapsing piece by piece because of the rising temperatures. Wouldn't you want to help with something like this, rather than increase it? Now hold on a second. This doesn't mean you're going to have to give up your laptop, your PDA, your iPod or any of the other energy sucking products you own (I own them too). This simply means that we must find a way, an alternative route so to speak, to take.



Well for the most part you're in luck because a lot of people have already figured out how to reduce energy costs and slow or recede our trip into recession. In fact, there are several e-books that can be found online that are do it yourself guides with easy to follow directions on how to do things such as; build your own energy efficient generator, build your own solar and wind powered generators and how to use renewable energy resources to our advantages. Solar radiation, tides, winds and hydroelectricity are perpetual resources that are in no danger of being used in excess of their long-term availability. The following books are e-books that you can find to help not only the earth, but yourselves as well!

Earth 4 Energy - A complete step-by-step guide. This guide will give you steps on how to build your own DIY solar and wind powered generators and it's as easy as 1-2-3! This book contains some really terrific additions to make it easy to understand and comprehend, such as step-by-step instructions and illustrations!

Make Natural Power - A great All-In-One guide. This book has been chosen among many "green" friendly websites as the number 2 choice of all the books available out there (earth 4 energy being number 1). This is another easy to follow guide on how to build your own renewable energy resources.

Home Made Energy - Easy step-by-step methods. Bill Ford is the author of this book and he will teach you a plan that he came up with on how to beat the energy companies at their own dirty games. These energy systems can be implemented into any one's home for just a few dollars.

You can also find many other books available online, some of these e-books are free, some are not. In my experience even if you spend a few bucks on the e-books it usually means they are of higher quality than the ones you might find everyone rummaging around in for free. The books above are well worth the few bucks you might spend on them!
