Scorpio: Daily green

Your dreams of getting off your city's utility grid by using solar energy might be easier than once imagined. Invest in large solar panels for your home, or think small at first and buy solar chargers for your cell phone, digital music players, computer, and other electronics. Do an energy audit on your home to see if drafts need to be covered, insulation needs to be installed and if you should replace appliances with more energy-efficient models.
