initial campaign will target middle class residents living in Lagos, Nigeria. We chose Lagos as it is Nigeria’s largest city with a population of over 21 million people (Rosenthal) and is home to several existing solar companies that provide PAYG solar energy options. Additionally, the Lagos government also has shown interest in solar and implemented a project in 2014 to use solar to power public institutions (Lagos Solar Project.). Lagos residents also suffer from lack of reliable electricity.…

replacing fossil fuels with alternative energy resources, not only helps to create a cleaner environment, it also helps reduce the bills. However, not everyone is aware of these issues. It’s time we realize that there is only a matter of time before we have globally consumed all available fossil fuels. We have reached a point in time where we must look into alternative resources preferably renewable ones. Alternative resources range from getting our energy from the sun, the wind, biomass or…

keep global temperature increases under 2 degrees Celsius. With such high expectations, the US and other countries around the world need to invest in new power producing technologies in order to phase out the fossil fuel industry. While renewable energy sources such as solar and wind are the best long term solutions, their unreliable, inefficient, and expensive technologies make them unusable to reach the 2050 goals. To reach the desired carbon goal, countries around the world need to invest in…

Consuming energy drinks can increase your body on doing “physical and mental performances”. Most energy drinks mainly contain high caffeine from a variety of 74 to 100 milligrams along with others that may include “plant based stimulants such as Guarana and ginseng.” For instance, a cup of five ounces of coffee can contain ninety five or one hundred milligrams of coffee, Pepsi includes sixty nine milligrams and for a Starbucks Venti Coffee contains 415 milligrams of caffeine. Almost every energy…

Everyday around the world, someone, somewhere, is trying to find the next new big source of energy. We do not really think of the where we get our energy but sooner or later, the sources of energy may run out and the world would be left in despair. Today, the people of the world mainly depend on fossil fuels such as coal. This is an issue because natural fuels such as coal are nonrenewable and harmful to the earth we live on. Since fossil fuels are nonrenewable, that means they will run out…

Warming 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 purpose of why energy drinks were originally designed was to target athletes. Promote increase energy thereby gaining faster running times, higher jumps, and so forth. However, over time this has evolved to” purposefully market young adults” (Malinauskas, Aeby, Overton, Aeby & Barber-Heidel, 2007), to aid them in their exams and “all night” cram sessions as well as party late and “function” the next day. It has replaced a way of life; one that includes health and wellness, such as,…

Alternative energies are going to be the only viable options for energy in the future. Others believe that these new types of fuels will only harm the planet more. This research paper will cover topics such as: what are the different types of Alternative/Renewable energy? What are the pros and cons of the different types of Alternative energy? Is it a long term solution? Geothermal, Hydroelectricity, Solar power, and Wind power are some of the more common types of Alternative energy, but there…

people are enjoying their life with those advancements, energy consumption has also increased enormously. With limited resources on earth, the development of renewable technology has become the focus for the past decades. The sun, the giant burning star that is 92 million miles away from us, is warming us the earth and providing us with light and energy, helping plants and animals grow, as well as the living of human. Depositing 342 joules of energy per square metre per second, the sun, as many…

Energy is an essential resource in everyday life. Our world revolves around energy and without it we wouldn’t be able to live. Our main source of energy is indeed fossil fuels but slowly they are becoming more and more limited. With fossil fuels once they are gone and used, they are gone forever. We burn these fossil fuels to receive fuel for planes, cars and powers electricity plants supporting large industries. Fossil fuel comes from decayed plants and animals. Although there are many…
