"If we truly want an innovative and creative renewable fuel industry‚ then it needs to be challenged. And if we create a set of protections that allow it to not be as creative and innovative as possible‚ then we aren’t doing a service to the industry or to the people of this country."- Jimmy Carter‚ April 18th‚ 1977. The threat to the environment has been a persisting issue for more than just a few years. Yet‚ only now is when the public has been made aware of the certain "complication". Luckily

What is so great about renewable energy? Well‚ because its renewable. Renewable energy will last forever and it cost close to nothing to get it. But it will always be their‚ unlike coal that once its gone‚ its gone. I think that the best process to get renewable energy is through geothermal plants. Some scientists think that the amount of geothermal energy stored in the earth will outlast our energy consumption and it may even outlast the sun. (Energy Informative) Geothermal is the most cost effective

A global energy crisis is defined as any great shortfall in the supply of energy to an economy. Energy is oil‚ electricity‚ or other natural resources like coal and natural gas. When the energy supply to an economy becomes endangered or scarce‚ prices raise to record highs. This paper will cover historical events that caused energy crises in the past‚ recent events that affect today’s energy prices‚ and what is being done and proposed to lessen the United State’s dependence on some forms of non-renewable

Sustainable energy is defined as the provision of energy that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of the future generations to meet their needs. Sustainable energy sources include all renewable energy sources‚ such as tidal power‚ wind energy‚ wave power‚ geothermal energy‚ hydroelectricity‚ solar energy‚ and bioenergy. The world is in need of more sustainable energy. New technologies are being developed and expanding on to aid in preserving the earth and going green

Renewable sources of energy Wind energy Wind Energy‚ energy contained in the force of the winds blowing across the earth’s surface. When harnessed‚ wind energy can be converted into mechanical energy for performing work such as pumping water‚ grinding grain‚ and milling lumber. By connecting a spinning rotor (an assembly of blades attached to a hub) to an electric generator‚ modern wind turbines convert wind energy‚ which turns the rotor‚ into electrical energy. Because wind is a clean and

ENERGY RESOURCE PLAN Conserving energy is important to our society because it can extend the life time of non-renewable resources. Examples of these are oils‚ coal ‚ and gas. It also minimizes the use of larger more dangerous and environmentally damaging sources ‚such as deep sea oil and tar deposits. Currently the world produces 20 million barrels of oil each year. One-third of that is used by the United Sates. Concidering that only %35 of an oil well can be recoverd one-third is a lot to consume

Researchers believe that the changes in our climate are directly related to certain types of energy. Energy plays an important role in many aspects of our lives. For example‚ we use electricity for lighting‚ heating‚ and cooling. We use fuel for transportation‚ heating‚ and cooking. Our energy production and use are connected with many other aspects of modern
