CHAPTER 1 Introduction Covering over 70% of the planet’s area‚ the Earth’s oceans could potentially be utilized as a source of virtually inexhaustible renewable energy. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is a method that employs naturally occurring temperature differences between warm surface water and colder deep seawater. To be effective a minimum temperature difference between the ocean surface layers is 20C . These temperature gradients exist primarily in specific tropical regions

warming to dangerously increase. Another way is electrical pollution. If the planet becomes too hot‚ the polar ice caps may melt‚ causing Earth to become inhabitable. Another huge impact that global warming has is its impact on the ocean. Global warming can kill algae in the ocean and algae is a huge source of food to many species in the sea. The heating of the earth is a huge problem. Another problem is what is being done to prevent global warming? The human race does many things to make global warming
