“on the whole, waste-to-energy facilities, which are small operations, emit far less particulate matter than large coal plants, a contrary report by the Environmental Integrity Project states, “Maryland's trash-burning plants -- which the state considers sources of renewable energy -- generated up to five times the amount of mercury and up to 18 times the amount of lead than its coal-fired plants between 2007 and 2009.” Prior to the 90’s, incinerators received a bad reputation because it was a…

Today I am going to talk about the topic of nuclear power. A local Nuclear Power Plant has come up with the idea to build a power plant in the town of Enola, PA. As the governor of Harrisburg, I am persuaded you to allow this to happen. There are three reasons you should allow this to happen. One reason is that it doesn’t cause pollution. Another reason is that it would produce more energy for the state. The last reason is that the operating cost is low. These are some reasons that you should…

The passage and the lecture both offer the opposing ideas on the emergens of fracking as a new method for natural gas extraction. While the passage use some reasons to approve the efficiency of it, the lecturer mentions to different aspects of it to reject it. For one, the passage states that fracking will affect on the increase in production that results in decline of natural gas price and similarly increases the jobs appertunities. Altough at first glance it looks sensible, the lecturer…

Biomass vs Fossil Fuels: Which is Better? Most people won’t argue with you when you say that fossil fuels are the least beneficial source of energy. But if you say that biomass, an alternative power source, is more beneficial than fossil fuels, some may disagree. How can a source of alternative energy not be better than fossil fuels?

stop us using coal, however, coal will finish in future, while energy can’t destroy it or remove it. (Mizuo…

For centuries, the manufacturing industry has depended on fossil fuels, such as oil and gas, as a main source of energy to drive economic development and power everything from homes to cars. Despite the positive influences of fossil fuels, society is beginning to solely depend on them as an energy source and as a result, irrevocable damage is being done on the environment in forms of pollution, carbon dioxide emissions, climate change, acid rain, and oil spills. Because of this, humans are…
