From Fossil Fuels to Renewable Energy The gas pump. As of late‚ it has been the bane of drivers everywhere. With the prices of crude oil skyrocketing combined with the prices at the pump and nearly everywhere else‚ many people are looking toward renewable energy sources to supplement or replace the use of fossil fuels. This interest in renewable resources has generated new energy policies around the world‚ has spawned new energy technology and has produced ideas on a different way of

Introduction A non-renewable resource is a natural resource which cannot be produced‚ grown‚ generated‚ or used on a scale which can sustain its consumption rate‚ once depleted there is no more available for future needs. Also considered non-renewable are resources that are consumed much faster than nature can create them. Fossil fuels (such as coal‚ petroleum‚ and natural gas)‚ types of nuclear power (uranium) and certain aquifers are examples. Natural resources such as coal‚ petroleum‚ oil and natural

Alternative Energy: The Source of the Future Danielle Hansen ENG 122 English Composition II Instructor: Jessica Ruddick October 4‚ 2010 This topic of this research paper is to discuss why we need to switch to alternative energy sources. Alternative energy sources are readily available‚ environmentally friendly‚ and cost effective. Unlike fossil fuels‚ there is an unlimited amount of resources‚ and a lot less pollution. Energy demands of our population are steadily rising

and a simple combustion procedure turns them into energy for running a vehicle‚ generating electricity and/or heat. Fossil fuels are currently a cheap source of energy and so are the methods of producing energy from them. With our present distribution networks‚ we can get fossil fuels of all kinds around the world. That makes it easy to employ them‚ no matter where you are. Thus‚ there is a huge dependence of fossil fuels. That means‚ as energy is running out‚ everyone will suffer the consequences

1. Introduction • VN is relatively endowed with multiform renewable energy (RE) resources which are distributed through-out the country. They can be exploited for production of energy to meet rapidly increasing energy demand as well as environmental protection. • Main RE resources in VN are small hydro power‚ biomass energy‚ wind energy‚ solar energy‚ and geothermal energy. • So far‚ even the high potential of RE resources‚ their contribution in electricity production in Vietnam is still negligible
