Question: Energy is the main culprit of environmental degradation. Energy usage is undeniably a major contributor of environmental degradation‚ as large quantities of carbon dioxide and other waste products are emitted that ultimately causes a multitude of environmental problems‚ especially global warming. Energy and the environment are inextricably linked due to a carbon dynamics‚ where energy usage results in carbon dioxide emissions which accumulate in the atmosphere (Appendix A). Over time

An energy crisis is any great bottleneck) (or price rise) in the supply of energy resources to an economy. In popular literature though‚ it often refers to one of the energy sources used at a certain time and place. Causes Market failure is possible when monopoly manipulation of markets occurs. A crisis can develop due to industrial actions like union organized strikes and government embargoes. The cause may be over-consumption‚ aging infrastructure‚ choke point disruption or bottlenecks at

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 of the

Alternative Energy Alternative Energy whether used for transportation or utilities such as generating electricity for home or business is a very significant subject going on right now because of the benefits it would provide for us‚ such as environmental‚ economic‚ job security and energy security. I believe alternative energy would be beneficial to our society‚ especially if it is used in transport; there is many other better‚ leaner and reusable energy sources out there‚ for example fuel for

The complete state (except Chennai city‚ the capital) suffers a power cut for more than 11 hours a day. The city of Chennai only has 2 hours of power cuts a day.[citation needed]
