Like many skilled trades, the art of manual machining is slowly dying out. This is because the world is moving towards technology, like CNC machines. As much as this technology is great at automating tasks, they lack the skill and eye for detail of a manual machinist. A manual machinist can also mill or turn to precise dimensions, unlike a CNC-programmed device.
Manual machining is a dying art, and is desperate need when you suffer a breakdown in an industrial environment. London used to have blossoming engineering support particularly in and around the docklands area. When a breakdown is suffered, a CNC machine will rarely be the answer. CNC machines are used for latch batch production and the item that will get you out of trouble may just be a one off. This is when you need a skilled manual machinists who can reverse engineer to precision, working 24 hours a day with stock of raw materials to minimise breakdowns.
As the world's population grows, so does our general waste output. London alone produces between 1.5 million to 1.75 million tonnes of food waste per year. That's a lot of waste, and if it goes to landfill, then it has a huge impact on the environment. If this residual waste is burnt in the open air, then it produces carbon dioxide, further harming our planet.
Climate change is important, which is why it's such a popular topic. We all have a duty to protect the planet we live on, both for ourselves and for future generations. This is why renewable energy is vital. It allows us to continue generating the energy we so desperately need as a society, but without harming the planet. Here is everything you need to know about green energy and how we can generate green energy from waste.
