five main kinds of renewable energy: biomass‚ hydropower‚ geothermal‚ wind and solar. Solar energy is provide by the sun in the forms of sunlight and heat‚ has been utilized the least even though it is probably the most accessible. However‚ solar energy holds a number of benefits for societies and it has already proven to have positive effects on residential homes and industrial applications. For many years‚ solar energy has been the economic choice for use in many industries where power is required

Solar Panels Vs. Trees Many consumers have several questions if whether or not if their neighbors can block access to their solar panels with shading. In the case of Solar vs. Trees‚ the trees are the ones that block the solar panels from direct sunlight. Both these men are environmentally friendly. “In terms of loving the environment it seems that neither one can top the other.” (NPR 62) When it comes to the decision of cutting down trees to get sunlight for solar panels‚ which one seems to have

Earth is the only planet in our solar system that sustains life‚ and therefore one of the most intriguing planets because of its capabilities. Each of the seven other planets that orbit the same sun as Earth is interesting in its own way. Some planets share similar characteristics to those found on Earth‚ while other planets are completely different. An analysis of these terrestrial bodies‚ using comparative planetology‚ will allow us examine these qualities. However‚ before beginning such a process

The objects in the asteroid belts that are contained within the Solar System affect life on Earth today. These asteroid belts are the main asteroid belt and‚ the Kuiper Belt. Since these belts contain so many objects‚ there is diversity present within the objects. The asteroid belts consist of many categories of asteroids‚ the sizes of which‚ can vary greatly‚ ranging from a few meters to miles long. However‚ the mass of all discovered asteroids is still less than Earth’s mass. This is logical since
