Solar Energy The use of solar energy is increasing throughout the world. Solar energy is used to make light‚ run computers and to conserve energy. Today we used fossil fuel to run factories and make electricity but little do the people know‚ one day we are going to run out of oil because it’s not a renewable source. Then what are we going to do ? We would have no other choice then to start using the sun for energy‚ so why not start now ? Solar energy is one of the world’s
