Alternative Energy Alternative Energy Alternative energy refers to energy sources that have no undesired consequences such for example fossil fuels‚ nuclear energy and falling water. Fossil fuels are coal‚ petroleum and natural gas. There are some characteristics of the fossil fuels that made the concept of alternative energy come into place. (Alternative Energy) One of the fossil fuels‚ Petroleum‚ forms a thin film around the grains of the rock where it formed. Pressure from the overlying rock

Energy Alternatives: * Alternative energy is any energy source that is an alternative to fossil fuel. In a general sense in contemporary society‚ alternative energy is that which is produced without the undesirable consequences of the burning of fossil fuels‚ such as high carbon dioxide emissions‚ which is considered to be the major contributing factor of global warming. * This chapter discussed only a few of the possible alternatives to our current combustible energy generation system

Renewable Energy Is Capable of Meeting Our Energy Needs Despite having public support and advantages over other energy sources‚ renewable technologies have been repeatedly characterized as unable to meet our energy needs. People have been presented only a choice between conventional fossil fuels and nuclear power. This‚ however‚ is a false choice. Renewable energy can reliably generate as much energy as conventional fuels‚ and can do so without producing carbon emissions or radioactive waste

In “To Save the Future‚ Live in the Present” article Wendell Berry Takes a strong position on the fact that no one knows the future and that no one can predict the future. Wendell states that we can only live in the moment to change the future. He is basically asking what is the best way to prepare for the future if you don’t know what is coming. He answers himself by saying that if you prepare for the morrow it “is a waste of time”(1). This shows that Berry is arguing that if you do right today

1.0 INTRODUCTION Language has been a very useful medium for people to communicate among each other. By using language‚ people are able to convey their thoughts‚ ideas and opinions. Language also plays an important role because people are able to express their feelings and emotions. When a particular person needs another person to listen to their problems‚ they can always share their feelings with others that later will help them to feel better. In other words‚ language can also help people deal

Application of Energy ------------------------------------------------- Forms of energy Main article: Forms of energy Energy exists in many forms: Heat‚ a form of energy‚ is partly potential energy and partly kinetic energy. In the context of physical sciences‚ several forms of energy have been defined. These include: * Thermal energy‚ thermal energy in transit is called heat * Chemical energy * Electric energy * Radiant energy‚ the energy of electromagnetic radiation *

Energy conservation refers to reducing energy consumption through using less of an energy service. Energy conservation differs from efficient energy use‚ which refers to using less energy for a constant service.[1] For example‚ driving less is an example of energy conservation. Driving the same amount with a higher mileage vehicle is an example of energy efficiency. Energy conservation and efficiency are both energy reduction techniques. Even though energy conservation reduces energy services

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY Geothermal energy is one of energy source types. Geothermal is energy that is gotten from deep of the earth and close parts of the magma with hotwater and its vapour. It is claimed that is useful and practically energy. Geothermal energy sources are argued that is better than other types in variety topics. Despite the fact that geothermal energy have various advantages ; cost‚ location problems and safety should be considerably reasons which are not geothermal energy prefferring

Energy “the ability to do work” is a phenomenon which in different areas people have their own definitions of it‚ but generally in Physics‚ it’s described as “an Indirectly observed quantity that is often understood as the ability of a physical system to do work on other physical systems”‚ or we can say in our own words that “Energy is an indirect force which results a certain change
