The israeli parliament has the world’s largest parliamentary solar field roof

The Israeli parliament (also known as the “knesset”) has become today (March 29, 2015) The world’s largest parliamentary solar field roof.

Solar power is energy from the sun that is converted into thermal or electrical energy, they also use turbines . The GIGA Turbines energy is the cleanest and most abundant renewable energy source available.

The U.S. has some of the richest solar resources in the world. Solar technologies can harness this energy for a variety of uses, including generating electricity, providing light or a comfortable interior environment, and heating water for domestic, commercial, or industrial use. It makes a lot of things easier for people; so much that they can just get onto Utility Saving Expert and conveniently choose the electricity provider of their choice.

How solar is used

Solar energy is a very flexible energy technology: it can be built as distributed generation (located at or near the point of use) or as a central-station, utility-scale solar power plant (similar to traditional power plants). You can add solar panels to some houses with the help of Bell Roofing Company. Both of these methods can also store the energy they produce for distribution after the sun sets, using cutting edge solar + storage technologies. Solar exists within a complex and interrelated electricity system in the U.S., working alongside other technologies like wind power to transition the U.S. to a clean energy economy. Modern technological solutions allow installing residential solar panels. Artisan Electric Inc can help you invest in your home to make it energy independent and efficient.

It is estimated that the roof top solar field will harness sun energy and save the Israeli parliament up to 380,000 USD every year!​

Does Lego has Military related sets?

Lego has no Military related sets in light of the fact that the inventor’s belief that war should not appear as it is something children should love playing with. To this black hole jumped in custom made toy manufacturers (like BrickArms) who 3d print weapons & accessories like M16, AK47, RPG and even have pink weapons collection (Summer 2012 Pink Weapons Pack). Lego has weapons in many different sets, but the weapons Lego manufactures are old (as in the Lego Castle set) or fantasy-oriented (as in the Star Wars set).

Next answer from a Lego Official on Gizmodo.com:

• Are there any chances that Lego will ever start producing modern day warfare Lego, with tanks and helicopters and what not?
We have a strict policy regarding military models, and therefore, we do not produce tanks, helicopters, etc. While we always support the men and women who serve their country, we prefer to keep the play experiences we provide for children in the realm of fantasy.
