Alternative fuel

Effect." The most helpful answer to global warming is to replace energy techniques with alternatives that have better performance and do not emit carbon dioxide. This is what we call alternative energy. It is estimated that by 2050, one-third of the world 's energy will need to come from solar, wind, and other renewable resources (Alternative, 2014). If we do not start taking advantage of the benefits of alternative energy, our global warming levels will rise, public health will start to…

The United States has been dependent on non-renewable fuel sources for many years. Ever since the advent of the coal powered steam engines and the internal combustion engine, fuels such as coal and oil have governed the lives and economy of the majority of Americans. These non-renewable fuels release large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which add to greenhouse gases. These greenhouse gases lead to climate change and many other detrimental effects. According to the IPCC “Most of…

Ever since the effects of global warming and the scarcity of fossil fuels have been noticed, the world has made a push towards alternative energy. Some are still non-renewable, like nuclear energy, but are much cleaner for the atmosphere than fossil fuels, while most of them are renewable and clean. The most common renewable energies are wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydro energies. Renewable energies produced about 16.6% of the world’s energy in 2010, and this number is expected to rise…

has inspired me to take a stand for the green energy initiative. For more than a century now, we as a civilization have solely depended on our fossil fuel resources to meet our energy demands. But with the depleting oil reserves and scientific evidence pointing towards an ever increasing global temperature, the demand for research in the alternative energy field has increased. The governments around the world have become aware of the potential benefits of Clean energy programs and are providing…

Introduction Fossil fuels play a very important role in administering the economy efficiently and enforcing newer developments effectively. Oil & gas, Coal and other mineral resources supports us with most of our energy mix and touch our lives in multiple dimensions. They cater to everything - from domestic uses to manufacturing industries, and from transportation fuel to synthesis of organic and chemical products. India is a country with more than 1.2 billion people accounting for more than 17…

innovative ways to obtain energy as affluence may be related closely to more efficient use of a wider variety of energy sources as it is to total energy consumption now. Our country South Africa, like all other countries is more reliant on fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas). Approximately 89% of South African energy supply is from fossil…

jobs. The miners wouldn 't have jobs and the people running the power plant would not have a job . This is also good because there is no pollution produced by this energy being produced . No hauling with trucks means no pollution . No burning fossil fuels with means no sulfur gases being released and no carbon dioxide being released. These means…

Rough Draft Imagine a world where all energy is pollutant free and completely renewable. This is the goal of the alternate energy industries today. Alternative energy is defined as energy that does not consume fossil fuel. Over the past few decades the number of alternate energy sources have greatly increased. All of these forms of generating energy are unique and innovative. Alternate energy sources reduce pollution, create a renewable and abundant source of energy, and all at a small cost.…

tenacious aspiration to encourage residents to go off grid, Rogers has inspired countless residents to become energy independent. In doing so, he has prioritized it as his ‘number one’ objective, insistent to reduce carbon emission from combustible fuels. The key factor that lead him to partake of the clean energy movement was perturbing fact that Hawaii’s hallmark coral reefs are perishing in the increasingly acidic ocean. Through obdurate, tireless effort, Rogers has manifested that carbon…

The problems associated with the use of fossil fuels as the worlds primary source of energy will have to be addressed sometime during my life time. Fossil fuels are not only very limited, the impact that this energy source is having on the environment will force the entire world to change our way of life. The primary byproduct of the use of oil is CO2, this release of CO2 into the atmosphere is causing what we know as global warming. As the levels of CO2 in our atmosphere increases heat that…
