Other than what? Please clarify.Common energy sources (for technological purposes) are fossil fuels (petroleum and coal), nuclear energy, as well as solar energy, wind energy, hydraulic (water) energy, and many others.

∙ 14y agoThere are several good sources, including hyrdoelectric power, wind driven through turbines, and solar energy collected with solar panels.
Wind energy, solar energy, geothermal energy, and hydroelectric energy are all good alternative sources of energy. These alternatives do not produce pollution and are highly renewable.

What are some alternative fields?
do you mean fuels? nuclear energy is the best alternative energy source.
What should the government's role be in decreasing our use of fossil fuels and improving the environment?
Your question calls for an opinion. Wikianswers provides factual answers, and people have different opinions of what more or less the US Government should do. Part of the controversy stems from the fact that some alternative energy sources like solar, are often not competitive, at present, with fossil fuel programs and rely on tax subsidies to be commercially viable. The US Government has numerous programs to provide incentives to lower our usage of fossil fuels and to promote alternative energy sources. We have tax incentives to use energy efficient cars and appliances. The new energy efficient light bulbs is strongly promoted by the US Government. Various programs exist to promote solar, wind and biofuels as alternative energy sources. See related links. You may find a great deal more by searching the US Department of Energy website.
What are some alternatives of using fossil fuels for energy?
Wind Energy,Hydro Power, Geothermal Energy, Solar Energy.
Is energy resource or nonrenewable?
It depends where it comes from. Energy from solar, wind, water etc is renewable. Energy from burning fossil fuel is non-renewable.
What is a reason that alternative energy sources are needed?
As a fact there is a great demand in the current energy market. So alternate sources of energy are necessary because we will run out of fuel. Also we can get green and clean energy if we consider for alternate energy source. But we have to make a right decision on which kind of alternate energy source actually works.
What are some good things about wave energy?
Tidal And Wave Energy Is Predictable One of the biggest wave energy advantages is that this alternative energy source is predictable, and that is not true of most alternative sources. The waves will continue to form and move, and severe weather in the ocean only increases the energy potential of the waves
What are some alternative energy sources that are safe for out environment and also renewable?
wind. solar. hydro.
Define alternative energy sources?
it means like energy sources that wont be used up . Energy sources that aren't fossil fuels; like wind power, water power, and look LOOK AT YOUR TEXT BOOK
What are the alternative sources you could use to provide energy?
There are many ways in which energy can be obtained, some of these sources could be: Solar Wind hydroelectric solar agricultural geothermal tidal nuclear :)
Why are alternative energy sources for cars being explored?
Alternative energy sources for cars are being explored because we are running out of petroleum. We need to explore alternative energy sources such as power for electric cars from renewable sources like solar and wind energy, as well as alternative fuels such as hydrogen and algae-based biofuels, before conventional petroleum-based fuels like gasoline and diesel run out. Solutions like these are more environmentally friendly, and in some cases cheaper and more efficient than common fuels like gas and diesel. - Oscar
Which scource of energy would be the most economical and safest for the community to pursue?
Radiant energy is the safest energy for people and the environment.
What is off grid?
Off the grid is a term that is commonly used to describe a home that is off of the main energy grid. In other words, they are homes that provide their own energy from alternative sources and do not rely on power companies. Some alternative home energy sources that people are using to get off the grid can include solar panels and wind turbines.

Are renewable energy resources also called alternative energy resources?
Alternative energy or a Sustainable energy source
What are some alternative sources you could use to provide energy?
Wind ,solar ,nuclear , hydroclectric ,tidal, biomass,sun,GO thermal
Why do you try to find new sources of energy?
You try to find new sources of energy so that if one day, the source of energy we use runs out, we will have an alternative. Also, some of the energy we use today has a bad effect to our environment and if people find new sources of energy that are possibly better than what we use currently, we will be saving the earth and using less cost if the new source of energy is cheap.
What are some alternative fields?
