we eat with energy

we travel with energy

we work with energy

and we even flirt with energy

today we gather most of our energy from coal, oil and natural gas

also known as fossil fuels

additionally we gather energy from biomass

nuclear and renewables

fossil fuels consist of the extracted decomposed organisms and plants that existed millions of years ago

biomass converts plants into biometric materials that produce energy

nuclear energy is released during nuclear fusion

Lastly, renewable energy comes from a source that's not depleted when used such as..

wind or solar power

but what's the profound difference between them?

how do they affect our planet?

fossil fuels cost more than what we pay at the pump

and impacts our environment in many ways

these impacts include global warming

air quality detoriaration

oil spills

and acid rain

it's also projected fossil fuel resources will be depleted within the next fifty to one hundred years

biomass and nuclear energy also have similar issues

and luckily we have one

renewable energy comes from resources which can actually replenish in our lifetime

whereas fossil fuels are a one time use resource in human time scale

resources for renewable energy include sunlight, wind,rain,tides,waves and geothermal heat

the best part is that we dont need to compromise our planet to harness it

nor do we have to rely on other nations for these resources

which history has shown to be a contributor to war, famine and political instability

so how do we get this ...

to look like this

presently we have the technology to be 100 % renewable reliant

the truth is our infrastructure is built around our fossil fuel dependency

if we could convert our infrastructure to what's known as a super grid, we would be able to rely on clean renewable energy

will our children live in a world full of pollution?

or should they continue the path of evolution?
