Renewable Energy: A Bright Future

In our book "Environment by Raven and Berg" Chapter 13 shows the importance of renewable energy. Currently, the United States is prosperous with the use of fossil fuels and nuclear power. The main problem with these types of fuels is that they are all limited and can be very harmful to our environment. It causes global warming, air pollution, acid rain, oil spill (environment). Not only that, in the grand plan, these resources are not really cheap fuel resources in fact.

So, if we do not use renewable energy to protect the future of the planet, that is it. Because renewable energy kills more animals than renewable energy, we need to use renewable energy to protect the future of the earth. In addition, non-renewable energy does not last long, and renewable energy is also a green choice. Because renewable energy kills more animals than renewable energy, we need to use renewable energy to protect the future of the earth. For example, in oil spills in BP, each animal involved will die or be mentally damaged. However, not all birds flying to the wind farm are killed or mentally damaged for life. Some people are safe from wind power plants. I always cough when I walk behind the car, but if you keep absorbing carbon dioxide in your car, you may suffer from lung damage, or in heavy cases You may die.

Most renewable energy sources contain no carbon. That is, it does not emit carbon dioxide when generating energy. Sunlight, wind power, hydraulic power are carbon free. The nucleus is not renewable, but it is considered not to contain carbon because it does not burn unlike coal or natural gas. As mentioned above, nuclear energy generates heat by fission rather than combustion. Biomass and biofuels are generally regarded as carbon neutral because they release carbon dioxide when burned. So why are they carbon neutral?

We develop and use energy that does not emit carbon dioxide. Water power, sunlight, wind turbines and other "renewable energy" do not emit carbon dioxide. There is no nuclear power. Burning natural gas produces less carbon dioxide than burning coal or oil. In the future, hydrogen that does not emit carbon dioxide during combustion may become a practical fuel. A method of capturing and storing carbon dioxide can also be developed. Reduce the impact of climate change: You can develop new crop varieties for growing in an environment with climate change. Waterways can carry water to areas affected by drought. Through dams and seawalls, coastal settlements and water supplies are protected from sea level rise. Coastal ecosystems, especially wetlands, are more difficult to protect
