Types of Energy and Ways to Conserve Jeffery Hartman SCI/275 January 9‚ 2010 Rodrick Esaw Types of Energy and Ways to Conserve Energy conservation is important for each of us and our future generations. At the rate of consumption we can experience an energy shortage like never before. If we continue to deplete the resources that are available to us then it will affect us in many ways such as; forced rationing‚ increased cost‚ and restrictions on use. Now is the time to seriously look at alternative

Introduction Climate change is one of significant issues that have been considered in recent years. According to Anderson (2009)‚ most climate researchers recognise it is essential to reduce 80 percent of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050 to prohibit effects of climate change. Furthermore‚ carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the most important causes to produce GHG which is combusted from heating‚ transportation and electricity generated by fossil fuels. However‚ one of the solutions for reducing
