These street lights are a sort of double option, we have seen solar powered lights before but these can be very reluctant to charge up fully when there is not too much sun about, this could then cause problems when the limited amount of power that is stored runs out.
That why these ones in Japan have been built with solar power and a wind turbine, the solar panels charge up the batteries during the day, while the wind turbine tops up the power

This is an idea that could help out with the power problems of the future, this is a wind power type of thing that is said to rival anything else, including nuclear!
This will would produce one giga watt of for around 1.5 euros an hour, if we were to compare this with other methods of power production, then the best type of power production which will cost around 43 euros per hour.

It may not be a brand new idea, but it is certainly a new idea in the UK, the Carbon Cred Card which gives the user credits for buying goods in certain places.
It works like a store reward card, firstly you shop online, there 1000’s around the UK, for every purchase that has been made the user collects points and with the points that are collected the user will be able to buy carbon reducing products or even to pay for green energy.

To ease up on vehicle congestion and to reduce carbon emissions, today was Car Free Day in the U.K.
The city of Inverness today was urging people to take alternate means of transportation to and from work, such as buses, trains, and bikes. Many opted to partake and were greeted with offers of free parking and free temporary bikes from a local group.
