4) Alternatives to Fossil Fuels.
Renewable
alternatives to fossil fuels include
Solar Photo Voltaic Power
Systems (Solar Energy),
Solar Hot Water
Systems, Wind
Turbines, Bio-Fuel Plantations,
Hydroelectric
Power, Tidal
Power and Geothermal Power.
These energy
sources are called renewable
because they don't run out.
They can often produce cheaper
electricity than burning fossil fuels,
and they are non-polluting.
Not
all of the above energy sources
are suited to all parts of the planet,
but in the absence of non-polluting energy yet
to be discovered,
they are the power sources of the
future.
