The electric plants today are still too often using coal which leaves massive carbon footprints on the Earth. The sun's energy comes for free, so why hassle with expensive grid power?

Solar pond pumps can be applied in a variety of ways. Some ideas are with waterfalls, fountains, streams, ponds, reflecting pools, and water gardens.

It was shaped and colored to disguise itself as a lillypad. Probably far from fooling anyone, but certainly more discreet than the common pump.

I was impressed!
