This is exclusively my idea about heating homes without the use of power. This was part of my Master's Thesis and It's all true. I passed because I actually built the Prototype:
If you go outside on a nice sunny day, and you have your car sitting along a tree nearby. (Heat transfer)
Go touch your car; it is most likely made of metal. It is hot because metal is a conductor. Go touch the tree made of wood.
Wood is not a conductor. It is cool to the touch.
Plastic and porcelain are also not conductors...That's why Electricity Companies use them; to protect us from shock.
The Sun provides heat to the Earth by convection. Warm air like the Sun always flows to cool air or objects like our Earth.
This is my idea:
Depending on whether you live in the Southern Hemisphere or Northern, one wall will face the Sun and the opposite will not. Since heat flows from warm to cool, make the hot wall as the conductor and the cold wall as the receiver.
This can be done if the right materials are used in each wall.
This would be a brand new heating and cooling system for the World, electricity free.
This new unit would be close-by or attached to the house on the warm side where it can catch the rays of the Sun.
It would be enclosed in a glass or Plexiglas case to receive maximum protection from our environment and oxygen contaminants.
Fans...run on the flow of air. The blades of the fan can be engineered to turn without power and return the airflow to the cold wall. This would heat the house as the air flows.
Electronic devises are also available that require no power to check the system.
My first prototype worked when I built it in 2003. Since I used leaves and animal droppings as a fuel, I discovered a new theory.
What I did was take 55 gallon steel barrels filled with water and placed them positioned toward the Sun. I only filled them 2/3 of the way because of the expansion of water pressure and included pressure relief valves.
It worked. The water drums ran at about 180 degrees. I even grew plants on very cold winter days.
Conclusion:
...the big oil companies shot down my idea because it would harm their profits. I took the idea to the Ukraine (Russia} and they considered to look at my prototype. After a couple of years, they decided that such a small device would not work in very cold Russian winters.
This story from the US made me wisely think it over again:
A man in the early 70's invented a device called a diode and when connected to an automobile frame would keep a metal car from rusting. It would eliminate one of the 3 causes of rust: Static Electricity.
The large Corporate Automobile Companies caught wind of that, and with their power, purchased the Patent. The man disappeared shortly after. Body never found.
{I was in the Perry Nuclear Facility in 1989 as a Security Camera Technician. I saw the flaws and how easily security could be bypassed if a terrorist was posing in a job like mine}.
I’ve thought for the past decade or so that a power alternative may come from our space programs like NASA or Russia. Satellite Solar energy transmitted and received to Earth in some way.
As we speak right now, a plan has been drawn to install large windmills off the shores of Lake Erie where there is always a wind. When completed, the windmills would provide energy to both the US and parts of Canada. The problem is financing.
This is a must, must, must see video.

It may make a difference with your opinions about Nuclear Power Plants, new or old. if you live near one. I live 20 miles from a Nuclear Power Facility in Perry, Ohio; within the danger zone. Perry is more often shut down because of flaws in engineering, and is in fact shut down now. The Facility is also under investigation for Employee negligence. When Perry was built, it was supposedly a state of the art new Nuclear Plant Technology.
Remember the near catastrophe at 3 Mile Island in Pennsylvania, USA, where radiation was leaked into the air?
We need to look at other alternatives and phase out Nuclear Power as an option.
Japan and California are the worst places to build Nuclear Plants. They are both Earthquake zones. Japan is breaking up into islands again as it did a millennium ago and California sits on the San Andreas Fault.

I've found that with the technology today, headphones are a good answer. Some are made to block all noise from the outside. I have 3 sets; ones for my radio, computer and TV set.
Life for us can go in different directions from day to day. Sometimes everything seems to go wrong, and other times it seems that we have a streak of luck. Rarely do most of us sit in the middle.
Why is this?
Newton's Third Law of Motion:
"His third law, also known as the "Law of Reciprocal Actions", is most commonly described as "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This means that, if object A exerts a force on object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite, force on object A. These forces are known as action and reaction forces, which always come in pairs. In this sense, the Law of Conservation of Energy is applied, stating that "energy is neither created nor destroyed."
This is a Universal Law in our lives as well. Nowadays, we call this "What goes around comes (back} around.
Everyone has a favorite shade tree to sit under in times of sorrow or joy. I chose a large Willow Tree. For those not familiar with Willows, the trees have large leafy limbs that bow and touch their fingers to the ground as if to say in prayer “thank you for protecting me today”.
This was a hiding place for me…to read books, daydream and snooze. Sunlight filters in from above; just enough to see and enjoy the Peaceful time of day and the beauty of Nature.
One auspicious day, I was reading. I heard thunder and lightning in the distance. I spoke to myself and said “do not be weary or afraid, the great willow tree will protect you from harm and the violence of Natures wrath.
I listened as the storm as came closer and closer. The tree limbs started to sway as if the wind was playing them as like a Musical Instrument.
In the aftermath of the storm, the great Willow had lost many hiding branches, but left me unharmed. The Willow is no longer alive. Perhaps the praying tree gave its life to protect others, as it did for me.
As of noon Wednesday August 10, 2011, the Global stock market is crashing again. This may change as the day goes on. It’s called an adjustment; however, it’s in the wrong direction for now.
The best Portfolio is one that is balanced. In other words, one that contains equal amounts of Blue Chip Stocks, Bonds, Precious Metals and an Emergency Cash Savings Account from a Bank.
Some of us have the time, patience and interest to do this ourselves and control our own destinies. If not, find a Financial Advisor that cares about your investments. A good one will always call you and say “Hey, think it’s time to move into Bonds or something”.
Why do we see these so called corrections on Wall Street?
The rich investors and Brokers play Wall Street like a Monopoly or Casino game {Gambling}. They purchase stocks when they are priced low and get out of the Market when they make a profit. A few Million Dollars loss is pocket change for them.
That’s what we see when the market goes up and down in numbers as now. Many small Investors are moving into Treasury Bonds as well as Gold.
The weather here is heavy rain and thunder on and off. Temps are cooling down as the northern hemisphere starts into fall and winter and the southern hemisphere starts to blossom into spring and summer.

RE: DOES THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT HAVE THE RIGHT TO REOPEN NUCLEAR PLANTS LOCATED IN SISMIC OR TSUNAMI RI
I was about ready to tell albert the same thing. He quotes out of context to impose his opinions on others and to apply his own Agenda.
