chains‚ Food Webs and the Flow of Energy in Ecosystems Introduction An ecosystem can be defined as a more or less self-contained function unit in ecology consisting of all abiotic and biotic interactions in a specific area. Flow of energy within an ecosystem is a one-way process; Photosynthesis utilizes light (solar) energy to yield chemical energy that is passed on to organisms at significantly reduced amounts at each level of nutrition. This ‘inefficiency’ in energy transfer is the principal constrain

RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES ABSTRACT The electricity requirements of the world including India are increasing at alarming rate and the power demand has been running ahead of supply. It is also now widely recognized that the fossil fuels (i.e.‚ coal‚ petroleum and natural gas) and other conventional resources‚ presently being used for generation of electrical energy‚ may not be either sufficient or suitable to keep pace with ever increasing demand of the electrical energy

Renewable sources of energy A way to stop the problem of Global Warming is to get rid of the greatest source of CO2 emissions. The biggest source of Carbon Dioxide emissions are power stations that burn fossil fuels. So if the coal power stations are replaced by the renewable sources of energy it will reduce the concentration of CO2 but also get rid of the coal mining and transportation‚ which have huge environmental impacts such as deforestation‚ water and air pollution and also CO2 emissions
