THE SUN

WILL SAVE OUT

PLANET!

WE ARE FED UP WITH FOSSIL FUELS

The fossil fuels we burn to meet our energy needs are destabilizing the atmosphere and lead to irreversible disasters. We have to give up on burning hydrocarbons and turn to clean energy sources to reverse this situation. The most powerful option is the sun, which we know most and is the source of all life

THE SUN IS EVERYWHERE

The sun, an infinite, quiet, clean, and accessible source of energy, brings thousands of times more than what we need.

Since recent developments have made the price of solar power compete with other sources, it is expected that an energetic paradigm shift will happen and solar power will have a definite advantage over fossil fuels.

HOW CLOSE IS METU TO THE SUN?

This month in the Science Café, Prof. Dr. Raşit Turan from METU Center for Solar Energy Research and Applications (GÜNAM) and Physics Department will talk about the technological developments in this area as well as the importance of solar energy. We are looking forward to seeing all popular science enthusiasts in our meeting where the progress made by METU GÜNAM and the effect it creates will be also discussed.
