The Chairman Ammar opened the meeting at 03:10 pm.

1.  Problems with the regular energy?

Ammar answered we need another resource to use e.g. safe energy like solar energy that uses sunlight.

Hedley was worried about the price.

Othman said the prices from the beginning will cost a lot but after that it will cost little because we generate the power from the sunlight.

2.  The cost to use alternative energy?

Othman said that the cost will be high for the equipment to use but the government will help in the price for the equipment for the people to use.

The government tries to reduce the prices and let people use equipment and sell it in 3 months.

3.  The benefits of using alternative energy?

Omair said that we will get a lot of benefits when we use the alternative energy in many ways like its clean energy, safe to use and it collects energy from the sunlight. All members agreed.

4.  Solutions for the problem?

Khaled said that the government must provide alternative energy equipment to use at low prices or make campaigns to educate the public. All members agreed to that.

1.  Problems with regular energy are that it is expensive and dangerous and we need alternative energy like solar farms.

2.   The costs will be high unless the government helps to reduce the prices to sell equipment.

3.   The benefits will be a lot when we use the alternative energy.

4.  Campaigns for the alternative energy needed.  We liked the idea,  especially solar energy.
