turbines that exploit Britain’s climate‚ hydro-power which captures energy from falling water‚ and wave power which captures energy from the sea are some of the main sources. The potential for the effective use of renewable sources of the main sources. The potential for the effective use of renewable sources of energy in this country is huge‚ but its implementation is poor. What is the cost of using non-renewable sources? Most serious of all is the contribution to climate change. We have been steadily

Climate change is the most significant challenge to achieving sustainable development and threatens to drag thousands of people to severe poverty. It refers to any outstanding measures of climate lasting for an extended period of time. This includes major changes in temperature‚ precipitation or winds patterns and others that occur several days longer. Some Caribbean islands in particular are vulnerable to climate change. Rising sea levels will have a consequential and dampening effect on their economy
