About PlugInCaroo

Let us as a Nation move towards fuel efficient vehicles, clean water, green farms and a clean-green environment! India receives some of the highest rainfall in the world... still the country thirst for water... why? India has the highest cattle population in the world...but hardly extracts any biogas/gobar-gas from it... why? India tops the world in almost all agricultural products... but less than 1% is organic/natural... why? India receives good sunlight and has a Solar powered Airport... but less than 0.01% of houses are powered by solar power... why? India has the best electric/CNG car in the world (E2O/Tata NANO).. but 99.99% of car owners prefer to pay in dollars for their petrol.. why? (1Ltr = 1$ almost). All these problems can be solved by us 100% within our lifetime... if we take action to solve these issues personally and bringing awareness about it, (instead of discussing TV serials, celebrities, cricket scores & political parties). Let us together build a bridge of knowledge over ignorance! Lets us become independent from "Fuel, Water and Seed control". Right from the time when fire was discovered as a source of energy people have been trying to control the source of energy... not any more!

Noha’s Solar Ark?

This all weather kayak reminds me or Noha’s Ark… this could also develop into a military missile or torpedo to attach enemy ships!

Solar Voyager is a project carried out by a couple of friends Isaac Penny and Christopher Sam Soon for the past four years and has seen really became reality last June 1 to leave terra firma. There is a long road ahead, and possibly reaching end French, Spanish or Portuguese coasts, depending on weather conditions.

With a size of four meters long and one meter wide, the “kayak” has enough room for two solar panels that give life during the four months last estimate that route. It’s funny, but the guys are looking for people at different points where you can get Solar Voyager, as the vehicle will reach that point in October, and none will be there to receive it. It is possible to follow the direct course of Solar Voyager, this link, and the time when we write these lines, it takes 526 kilometers. The statistics are updated every 15 minutes via satellite. As the boat was designed in the United States but actually created in Singapore. Almost everything in it has been created quite a craft, and carries solar panels 240W. Obviously this is a type of panels designed to withstand bad weather and moisture will live for many months in the middle of an ocean.
