It has been outside for one year. This solar panel runs the feature.

This is one of my attempts to get acquainted with direct use of solar power.  This little solar panel is close to 7″ by 8″.  The bowl of the terra cotta water feature that is on the ground is 12″ in diameter.   If it is cloudy, or we stand in front of the solar panel, the fountain does not run.

I am convinced that we should have more help to get solar power going everywhere possible so that we can reduce our fossil fuel consumption with its concomitant CO2 production, which is causing global warming and climate change.
