How much energy is produced compare to fossil fuels?

well that depends compare to solar energy i think fossil fuels make the most energy out of any other kind of energy because they have coal, petroleum, oil and natural gas in wish solar energy depends on the sun and wind energy in the wind that is why fossil fuels produced more energy than any other.


Do solar cells hurt the environment or make it better?

If you mean by helping us use less fossil fuels, yes. Solar Cells generate electricity from solar energy released by the sun.


How are fossil fuels an indirect form of solar energy?

Fossil fuels are an indirect form of solar energy because solar energy was used to sustain the plant life,through photosynthesis, that is now now part of the fossil fuels.


How are solar energy and wind differ from fossil fuels?

How does solar energy reduce the use of fossil fuels?

Most countries burn fossil fuels to generate electricity.If they used solar power to generate electricity, thenThey would not have to use so much fossil fuel.Solar Energy itself does not reduce the use of fossil fuels. But the use of solar energy should hopefully reduce the need of fossil fuels to create energy, so therefore the more we can use solar power as an energy source instead of fossil fuels, the more we reduce the use of fossil fuels.


How would solar heated building and floors and walls reduce fossil fuels?

Fossil Fuels are used to heat buildings, floors, and walls. Solar Energy can be used in place of fossil fuels and does not require them. Therefore fossil fuel use can be reduced by using solar heating.
