Stellar Solar founding partner Michael Powers has been speaking on the topic "Solar Energy As a Spiritual Practice" to a growing number of these organizations that want to lower their energy cost and reduce their carbon footprint. This coming Thursday night, October 16, he will be presenting to members of Vision Center for Spiritual Living in San Diego. In addition to managing their energy costs, many churches and spiritual communities see solar energy as an important way to embrace spiritual goals, such as being good stewards of the planet and its climate through environmental responsibility.
"When you consider that the earth receives enough energy IN ONE HOUR to power the planet for an entire year," said Michael Powers, "You realize that solar power is about more than cutting energy costs or protecting the environment… it's about sustaining a society where there are enough resources available for everyone to be truly successful. It's hard to think of a more compelling spiritual goal than that."
