Abstract: | The inspiration of the theory of evolution, the Galápagos Islands, once again is exemplifying how species can evolve. The species presently evolving on the Galápagos Islands are not only the finches and giant tortoises, but the human species. The residents of this famous archipelago are in the process of converting the production of electrical energy and transportation from a 100% dependency on fossil fuels to a community based on 100% renewable and low/non-polluting resources.
