Technology in COP21: Dance to Save the planet


 

Domenico Vito
How to take the climate change adaptation with the right spirit?  C’mon let’s dance.
We are at the Climate Generation Areas, , where a total of 360 French and international civil society organizations, through 120 stands, are all together for the first time  in the COP history in a space  of almost 3 football pitches, organized by the French government.
Here , the Solar Sound System is presenting its project of a radio station that takes the energy from solar panels and bikes.
Solar Sound System (3S) is a self-contained set-up with turntables and powerful speakers, powered by solar and muscle power (bicycles).
The systems consist of turntables for djs, and a powerful sound system that can cover from 50 to 500 people.The result is the production of music at completely zero emissions!!
It is equipped with batteries for a non-stop party.
The system adapts to all types of configurations, a it is a modular support,that can used in the  context of concerts, educational workshops etc...
It can also supply other multimedia installations.
Solar Sound System (3S) is active since 1999, with its first office at Lausanne.
After some years, the activity expanded with a second office in Paris in 2010.
The mission of Solar Sound System (3S) is to propose to to share an energetic and participatory experience.
In short, 3S offers an innovative ecological and participatory, performance, with high quality material and energy technology.
But the 3S team doesn’t’ stop here.
Thanks to the completely  independence from the grid  connection and the low costs of installation, the Solar Sound System is particularly fitted to be used for streaming in remote villages or emergency situation.
In addition to the 7 existing systems in France and Switzerland,in fact the project has built also solidarity projects in Haiti, Brazil, India, Taiwan and Cameroon.
More about 3S can be found in the website http://paris.solarsoundsystem.org/ and on the facebook page
The party has just started  here at COP21, with new generation technology for the new climate generation.
“Dance to save planet” is the motto!
So keep on dancing for a better future!!
