E.J. Croughs

Erwin Croughs is a self employed inventor with a decade of experience bringing new products at an average of almost one per year to the market. Having been professional waiter at the beach and on cruise ships, he knows the restaurant business thoroughly. Thus most of his products cater to the needs of restaurants like fuel efficient lights, table skirting without clips, oil based fire baskets, wind resistant torches and self adjusting tables that stabilize themselves on uneven grounds like grass, tiles, cobblestone, wood, sand, etc. He’s a vocal critic of human rights abuses and on his site he exposes some of the tricks played by healthcare and pharmaceutical companies defrauding the public and government of huge amounts of money while increasing the problems they profess to cure. For over six years he’s been researching the future energy needs of the world. He proposes several solutions on his site to decrease CO2 levels and integrate clean energy solutions. He focuses on alternatives and is working on a project to demonstrate feasibility. He is working in a favourable climate as in 2006 the English and Dutch prime ministers put ecology high on the political agenda of Europe which has since been the main drive behind world wide sustainable development despite the 15.000 industrial lobbyists in Brussels.
