Usually an "alternative energy source" is one that is not now a major contributor to our energy supplies. That would make "alternative energy" anything that is not based on fossil fuels of one sort or another. Some people exclude nuclear energy from the "alternative" universe
Because by using alternative energy sources, we cut down on the use of fossil fuels, which are bad for the environment and will run out with overuse.
Since this world's fossil fuel supply is getting lower, people need to find alternative forms of energy to continue producing electricity. Since biomass is an alternative energy source, its importance is growing in place of fossil fuels.
The nuclear energy is now the most important source of alternative energy.

About 55%to60% of energy is gained by alternative energy.
The Alternative Energy website has a newsletter with all the latest technologies and advances in alternative energy.
- no air pollution - no greenhouse effects - no fossil fuel - the most important alternative source of energy - it is the energy of the future
Alternative energy is made of renewable resources. :)
It is important to use alternative forms of energy because fossil fuels are becoming more difficult to obtain. The more people use fossil fuels, the less we have later because such fuels take millions of years to form and we use them very quickly due to our over-population.
