Alternative Energy: The correct response to diminishing fossil fuels In 1977‚ the President of the United States of America‚ Jimmy Carter‚ advocated for the use of alternative energy to the American people “because we are now running out of gas and oil‚ we must prepare quickly to strict conservation [of fossil fuels] and to the use of coal and permanent renewable energy sources‚ like solar power.” More than thirty years later his announcement still rings true and is relevant. In fact‚ the current

difference between alternative energies (AE) and fossil fuels? Alternative energies will not have a lot of pollution‚ but fossil fuels will cause some pollution of the environment. Some fossil fuels causes environmental pollution‚ for example‚ global climate change‚ a lot of carbon dioxide cause the greenhouse effect‚ acid rain emissions of harmful gases cause serious pollution to the atmosphere. 2/ name the AE that you have chosen to research.

How can alternative sources of energy be harnessed effectively? Our modern life today needs energy. World energy demand is more than available energy sources. Fossil fuels are running out every time it is used. So we need to provide new energy that can be harnessed instead of fossil fuel for today and tomorrow. Alternative energy This problem can be solved by LCOE‚ national grid‚ and new technologies like Crystal Solar and optimizing battery storage. Fossil fuel is non-renewable energy that will

oil and natural gas are limited‚ nuclear energy is dangerous‚ and then there is solar energy: clean‚ abundant and safe. It is already used around the Earth to give energy to those huge satellites into orbit but also in the surface of the Earth to provide electricity to many houses or other structures in need of energy. Indeed solar energy may be the most important renewable source of energy for the moment. However installations allowing using the solar energy such as solar panels are still very expensive

Can alternative energy effectively replace with fossil fuels? ‘’Fossil fuels are coal‚ natural gas and petroleum.’’ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fossil_fuel) They are all organic residues. People use this for their energy‚ fuel and heating requirements. But fossil fuels polluting environment so much and people started to think about using alternative energy for their environment’s healthy. ‘’These alternative energy resources are windy power‚ solar energy and geothermal energy.‘’ (http://en

Can Solar Energy be a viable alternative for electricity generation in Nepal? “The sun bathes the earth in a steady‚ enormous flow of radiant energy that far exceeds what the world requires for electricity fuel.” The last decade has been harsh enough for the people of Nepal. The power cut being hiked up to 16 hours a day in 2009 provides testimony to the fact that Nepal has been hard hit by energy crisis. Given the over-increasing population‚ along with rapid industrialization and urbanization
