Renewable Energy: Edison Conference
It wasn’t too long ago that man was able to pursue power without ever looking back. In this era, however, it would be too dangerous refusing to glance back now. Resources that grant us power is depleting at an alarming rate. Fortunately, there is something we can do. By using renewable energy from now on, we can preserve our vanishing natural resources and create an earth run by man and nature. The main renewable resources, the resources that will never run out on us, are solar, geothermal, wind, biomass, and hydropower energy. (1) Under normal circumstances, using renewable energy would be more expensive than the efficient fossil fuels due to the giant gap of energy output and the location where some renewable resources are accessed. However, continuing the use of non-renewable resources will just increase their scarcity, increase the demand, and essentially increase the price for a single unit. (2) That is why acting now as a whole planet is vital to preserve what the earth has made.
