“Alternative sources of Energy" In the not-too-distant future -- with regard to history’s time-line -- there will come a point when oil that is fossil fuels will have been depleted. However‚ waiting until supplies are exhausted would place a major hardship upon future energy demands. Even the existence of other conventional sources such as hydropower‚ wind energy and biomass will not suffice keeping in mind the rapid advancement. It is therefore imperative to look for alternative sources of energy

parking lots covered with ice can cause falls‚ making you liable for injuries. So most people rely on deicers such as salt because it does a great job melting ice‚ but it also damages concrete surfaces over time. How does salt damage concrete surfaces? Salt lowers the pH balance in the concrete. Because it is acidic‚ it weakens the strength of the concrete and increases the sizes of the pores. This allows water and other elements to penetrate the surface. Salt also attracts and retains water‚ absorbing

example the presence of salt greatly enhances the rusting of metals. This is due to the fact that the dissolved salt increases the conductivity of the aqueous solution formed at the surface of the metal and enhances the rate of electrochemical corrosion. This is one reason why iron or steel tend to corrode much more quickly when exposed to salt (such as that used to melt snow or ice on roads) or moist salty air near the ocean. [pic] salt will speed up rusting. The more salt you
