Up until
recent years, the
entire human race was
fuelled by
energy from our
Sun. Any
bodily heat or ability to
walk down the
street was actually just an
expenditure of some of the Sun's
radiated
energy.
e.g.:
Person eats cheek cell
Cheek cell was grown from cow meat protein
Cow was slaughtered for hamburgers
Cow was grown from grass
Cow ate grass grown in sunlight
Oh yes your cheek cell calories are Sun rays
even when there's an artificial process involved:
Person eats tasty alfalfa
Edible plant was grown exclusively under indoor lighting
Power for lights came from burning coal
Coal came from pressurized strata of organic matter
(Which, naturally grew in sunlight, or ate something that did)
but thanks to modern science:
Person eats cucumber
This edible vegetable was grown under indoor lighting only
Energy for lights came from uranium splitting
The U came from a solar process far older than our sun
If you live in
North America,
chances are that you have had at least some of your
life fed by this
ancient source of energy,
stored up for more
years than you can
imagine,
released for you by modern
technology.
