A collie dog is seen on the island of Eigg, Inner Hebrides, Scotland

A collie dog is seen on the island of Eigg, Inner Hebrides, Scotland May 25, 2014. The Scottish island of Eigg has the first completely wind, water and sun-powered electricity grid in the world, according to the Isle of Eigg Heritage Trust. According to a local, between 85 and 95 percent of the energy consumed on the island comes from renewable resources. Scottish nationalists say that the best way to harness Scotlands renewable energy potential is to vote for independence on Sept 18, although an independent Scotland would also benefit from large oil reserves in the North Sea. Campaigners to keep Scotland in the United Kingdom argue that the growing renewables sector would suffer with independence, as the cost of new infrastructure would not be spread out across the whole of Britain.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the island of Eigg in the Inner Hebrides, Scotland. In this picturesque setting, a collie dog stands proudly against a backdrop of rolling green hills and clear blue skies. But there is more to this image than meets the eye. Eigg is not just any ordinary island; it boasts the world's first fully renewable electricity grid powered by wind, water, and sun. The Isle of Eigg Heritage Trust reports that between 85 and 95 percent of the energy consumed on this small Scottish island comes from sustainable sources. The timing of this photograph holds significance as well. It was taken during a period when Scotland was contemplating its independence from the United Kingdom. Proponents argued that an independent Scotland would be better positioned to harness its vast renewable energy potential, while opponents claimed that such a move would hinder growth in the renewables sector due to increased infrastructure costs. Amidst these debates, Eigg serves as a shining example of what can be achieved through dedication to clean energy solutions. As we admire this collie dog amidst nature's splendor, let us also reflect on how innovation and sustainability can coexist harmoniously for a brighter future.
