Solar Power is a clean and renewable form of alternative enegery that has many fans in the United States and abroad. According to the Washington Post , despite having very little sunshine, Germany has managed to use five times as much solar power than the entire US. Now that is an impressive feat that will benefit the German people. Perhaps Americans would do better to invest in such environmentally sustainble forms of enegery.

Doing such would surely prevent disasters like the BP Oil Spill, which resulted in 170 million gallons of oil  flooding into the Gulf. According to the National Wildlife Federation "more than 8,000 birds, sea turtles, and marine mammals were found injured or dead in the six months after the spill," and that's only the tip of the iceberg. The true long term effects of the spill may not be known for years. The only side effect of a solar spill is a nice day.
