Planet earth is inevitably the most diverse planet in our solar system. With temperature extremes of over 134 F and -135.9 F is experienced on earth. It is this earth, where the least amount of deep oceans and sea has been discovered that the highest of the mountains. But the threats to our planet is also not less, as various nuclear power plants and nonrenewable sources of energy are being utilized for power generation. Such nonrenewable resources generally usually include burning various kinds of fuels.
You might be wondering that an increase in a degree or 2, in the global temperature may not affect the human life and even biologically, human beings do not perceive the shift in Temperature by a degree or so.
Ironically, when the world was one degree warmer than it is now, probably 6,000 years ago, the area around the city of Nebraska was a desert. According to research, it has been found out that almost 400 cubic kilometers of ice have vanished in the past 40 years.
The snow-covered eyes reflected 80% of the sun's heat and when such huge amounts of ice lands having turned into the oceans, and it is known that the ocean absorbs 95% of the solar radiations falling from the sun, the trigger towards human extinction has inevitably been set off.
A study also revealed that a single degree of rising in global temperature would deprive the earth of fresh water by one-third of the current amount by 2100.
Similar symptoms are already been observed in various parts of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra. In a single year, the seizure of 7,20,000 square kilometers of permanent ice at the poles might stand as a testimony to the rapid change in the climate.
Therefore, it is high time that every major industry dependent on power generation on non-renewable resources shift towards the usage of solar energy. Nevertheless, there exist companies that are already into the right path. However, there is one major newcomer in the industry which has been exorbitant in its way of adopting renewable resources. Elon Musk's, Tesla Motors, is very well known for its high-quality products and eco-friendly policies.
Its state of the art electric cars is one of the most famous and popular ones for their performance, looks, and efficiency. Tesla's drive for solar power shift is testified by the fact that over hundreds of patents were not bought and denied by the company, as they believed that it might inhibit the adoption of solar energy by the masses. The Tesla Model S launched in the year 2012 has been one of the most popular plugs in cars sold around the world.
The company is set to have its production unit around the world. However, the factory in Nevada, regarded as the mega-factory, utilizes solar panels from its roof to power up the entire factory, which is regarded as the second biggest factory in the world. Initially, the gigafactory was dedicated to producing power walls and various lithium-ion batteries. However, the production line for the Tesla cars was its major breakthrough. In a nutshell, the Tesla motors is sure to redefine the solar power generation as it envisions to launch 3 bigger Gigafactories around the world.
