Why must the industrialized world switch from using energy generated through the burning of fossil fuels?

Because the world is running out of fossil fuels and we are too dependant on them.
Also, burning fossil fuels releases Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere which contributes to Global Warming. Alternative energy sources such as wind and solar will never run out (renewable) , are clean (no CO2 released) and are relatively cheap.

Where is the suns energy is generated at?
At the core where the fuel is burning
What is function does mitochondria have?
It has to generate energy. Energy is generated through respiration.
How is chemical and mechanical energy the same?
Chemical energy appears as heat, such as burning coal with oxygen.Mechanical energy is the result of a force being generated
What are examples of a lot of kinetic energy?
Heat generated by burning methaneSound vibrations coming fromA ball flying through the airm a radioLight created by a burning sparklerHeat from a hot water bottleFire created by a burning logA truck driving down the roadElectrical current moving through a wireSound vibrations coming from a radio, and Heat generated by burning methaneeverything that has a mass and moves at a certain speed has got Kinetic energy.for example a moving train.
What does solar energy mean in science?
Solar energy is the energy present in sunlight, or energy that is generated through the use of sunlight.
What is the amount of power generated through nuclear energy in India?
40%
When gasoline is burned in a car engine and the car moveswhat energy is generated?
The chemical energy (the fuel) turns into kinetic energy (the car moving) and heat energy(given off by burning fuel).
What is the difference between mechanical energy and nuclear energy?
Mechanical energy is energy generated through motion, while nuclear energy is generated through either fusion (the combining of atoms), or fission (the breakdown of atoms). stars generate fusion, and nuclear power plants, use uranium for fission.
The suns energy is generated at its?
the suns energy is generated at its core. The energy that is produced by the sun is generated by fusion.
What is amount of power generated through nuclear energy in India?
63,000 Megawatts.
How is enormous heat generated in a nuclear reaction?
Through the conversion of mass to energy.
Hydroelectric energy can be generated through a run-of-the-river system and through a storage systemdescribe each system?
It is true.
