But there\u2019s always hope. Sustainable design is growing more and more prevalent in efforts to combat global climate change and lessen the resulting destruction of our one and only livable planet.

Many countries\u2019 power grids are still mostly dependent on fossil fuel sources as a result, and since climate change ripples across the entire globe, the complex process of reaching a single unified solution is inevitably going to require the collaboration of the entire global workforce.<\/p>\n<p>Soleolico is doing its part by putting several green energy sources together in the same space with its newly revealed photovoltaic \u201csails\u201d, which are basically vertical-axis wind turbines (they have tall blades facing forward attached to a hub that\u2019s facing upward, allowing the turbine to spin in a horizontal circumference) with solar panels mounted on the front part of the blades.
