our energy and power sources. Green energy is a term used for sources of power and energy that are environmentally friendly. Basically this includes anything that is renewable energy. Renewable energy is considered energy that is constantly being replaced such as wood‚ vegetable matter‚ and trash. Green energy ’s main focus is to use sources that can cut down on pollution. Some of these sources of power and energy are Biomass energy‚ geothermal energy‚ hydropower‚ nuclear energy‚ solar energy‚ wind

Energy Summary SCI/362 2013 Energy Summary Introduction In this paper we explain some current environmental problems and how some people are looking for quick and temporary solutions without taking into consideration the environment. These solutions might be beneficial for the human existence in the present time or for a short period of time but the imminent destruction of the environment will be permanent due to the damage caused by the last generations‚ which are now seeing the consequences

Household energy consumption is examined in the specific context of home heating expenditures. Analysis of home heat costs across stages of the family life cycle reveals a distinctly different pattern than previously found when total household energy costs were examined. In contrast to the curvilinear pattern where expenditures peak during middle stages of the life cycle‚ these data show a positive linear relationship where higher costs are associated with elderly consumers. The research focus is

discussed in Detail about Wind Energy and the production of electricity from moving vehicles. So first we defined Energy. Till Now we have studied that energy is the ability of a body to do work .it can also be defined as the ability of a body to bring some change is the energy of that body. Energy is very necessary for human beings; every thing in the universe possessed some energy. There are two main kinds of Energy 1. Kinetic Energy 2. potential Energy Kinetic energy is produced by the motion
