Do you remember in 2010 when every news station and every newspaper across the country had a headline about the BP oil spill? Do you think if America would have started converting to another resource such as wind‚ this would’ve still happened? Are oil and oil based products are taking over the economy? Think about everything you used today that uses or is made with oil such as gas‚ plastic‚ ink‚ and tires. Americans consume petroleum products at a rate of three-and-a-half gallons of oil and more

Investment Thesis We believe that there will be an increase in investments into the alternative energy space in the next 3-5 years as the costs of production and maintenance decrease and become a complete substitute to fossil fuels. We have already started to see this trend within our GEX fund. We believe investing into alternative

Fossil fuel unfortunately is a non-renewable energy resource and it is completely unsustainable. The population in the United States alone is expected to more than double by 2050.What are we to do about our future energy demand? One of the answers to this fuel problem is bio-fuels. However‚ most of bio-fuels today are produced from the land and we will need all the land we can just in order for us to

This fact points to the actuality of this matter – the future of renewable energy is a very important question nowadays. My goal in this paper is to prove that renewable energy has far more advantages then fossil fuels and deserves to be called the “energy of the future”. To achieve this goal‚ I have organized my paper into three sections. In

goal is to find ways to produce technology in ways that do not damage or deplete the Earth ’s natural resources. In addition to not depleting natural resources‚ green technology is meant as an alternative source of technology that reduces fossil fuels and demonstrates less damage to human‚ animal‚ and plant health‚ as well as damage to the world‚ in general. Next‚ green technology is so that products can be re- used and recycled. The use of green technology (clean technology) is supposed to reduce

Throughout most of history‚ the amount of waste generated by humans was insignificant due to low population density and low societal levels of the exploitation of natural resources. Common waste produced during premodern times was mainly ashes and human biodegradable waste‚ and these were released back into the ground locally‚ with minimum environmental impact. Tools made out of wood or metal were generally reused or passed down through the generations. However‚ some civilizations do seem to have
