Wind Energy Saves the World The need for renewable energy implementation is essential around the world to ensure a sustainable worldwide community and healthy environment. Each and every day more CO2 is wildly thrown into the air by common energy producing practices such as coal burning and nuclear reactors. These practices are reckless and are absolutely detrimental to the surrounding ecosystem and even ecosystems hundreds of miles away. Implementation of wind energy as the major player of the…

What is the planet friendly solution to our dependence on fossil fuel? Our solution to the dependence on fossil fuel is solar energy. Solar energy is the primary source of power for humans to use thousands of years and appears every day for free. Indians used the sun to dry hides, herbs, and meats for storage. Prior to the invention of the clothes dryer, people used a line pulled tight between two poles or structures to hang clothes on for the sun to dry. In more recent times, people use…

While discussing fossil fuels, there is nearly always another topic mentioned: alternative energy resources. Alternative energy resources are defined as, “current technologies that have comparable or better performance, but do not emit carbon dioxide (Alternative Energy 2015).” Due to the harmful nature of the overuse of fossil fuels, scientists hope to replace them with four alternative energy resources. The four alternative energy resources are solar power, nuclear power, wind power, and…

be independent. The one and major inconveience of solar power is what do you do on a cloudy day? Or if one place does not get a lot of sun how can it run? Advantages: Solar energy is a renewable resource that is environmentally friendly. Unlike fossil fuels, solar energy is available just about everywhere on earth. And this source of energy is free, immune to rising energy prices. Solar energy can be used in many ways - to provide heat, lighting, mechanical power and electricity.…

In analyzing the future of energy in the United States, the state of California will be the city of interest. It is one of the most populated states in the United States of America and as such it is expected to have equally high demand for energy. On the contrary, it has one of the least per-capita energy’s usages. This is attributable to some factors, which the state enjoys. These are mild climatic conditions experienced in the state relative to other parts of the nation, energy supplementation…

The climate is warming and will continue to rise under human influence. Signs of climate change are already being seen in today’s environment and the significance of these changes are accepted by most people, however there are still some people who choose to deny these facts. Global warming has the potential to dramatically disrupt some of life’s essential requirements for health, water air and food. In order to plan for climate change policies, and understanding of how Australians perceive…

power, for two reasons. First reason, if we continue to use fossil fuel, the planet may be in danger and may cause carbon dioxide emissions. The carbon dioxide is increasing the planet’s temperature, which in turn will destroy us and our entire ecosystem. The second reason is we need to find energy sources that do not put out carbon dioxide (i.e.) fossil fuel. Fossil fuels are not renewable and are harmful to the environment. Also, fossil fuel cost goes up every day. With more and more…

era to manufacturing production era. This was the time where technology was improving and aspect of our daily life was changing. The first powered gasoline car (Benz Patent-Motorwagen) was made in 1807 and made by Karl Benz. Gasoline is made from fossil fuels, which is released into the atmosphere. When gasoline is burnt it releases carbon dioxide (CO2). The burning of coal releases carbon dioxide into the air. Coal is used to produce electricity and heat. Joseph Fourier found that earth…

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…

Sadly, all of this progress is now under threat as since January 2016 the tax credit has been cancelled. This poses a huge threat to the progress that has been made (Downey, 2015). While these advances are small in comparison to the production of fossil fuels, how can it be argued that renewable energy sooner or later will be the…
