At the present time our main sources of energy are fossil fuels and nuclear power. These are both very useful and convenient, but they also present a variety of environmental, as well as economic and political problems. Fossil fuels release carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. The massive importation of fossil fuels into the US from the Middle East in particular, creates economic and political problems as well. Nuclear power has already been involved in a series of catastrophic accidents (Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, Fukushima) and it would be foolish to imagine that no more such accidents can ever happen. Radiation is very dangerous. So, we would like to have better sources of energy which avoid those types of problems.

Where can you find a ignition wire harness for 2005 Toyota Solara?
Your best source is a Toyota dealership. A possible alternative 'might' be an auto recycling yard but removing an ignition harness on a modern car intact could be difficult.
Why is biomass becoming more important?
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.
What is the cheapest alternative energy source?
the cheapest alternative source of energy is biomass. because we can use it all and free and easy to find.
Why do we need to find other forms of energy?
We need to find other forms of energy to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, which contribute to climate change. Diversifying our energy sources also increases energy security and reduces the environmental impact of energy production and consumption. Additionally, exploring alternative energy sources can foster innovation and create new economic opportunities.
Why is it important use alternative energy sources?
Alternative to what ? IF you are referring to oil based fuels, THEN the answer is that the supply of oil is finite, but demand for it is not. The supply of solar energy is constant and infinite. Having solar panels on the roof of every home would save an unbelievable amount of natural resources and eliminate a lot of the polution caused by burning fossil fuels and also save the consumers a lot of money on their electric bills.
Why is it important to find alternative resources to use in the place of fossil fuels?
It is important to find alternative resources to fossil fuels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change. By transitioning to renewable energy sources, we can also reduce air pollution, create more sustainable energy systems, and decrease our dependence on finite and environmentally damaging fossil fuels.
What of these is a factor in the us need to find alternative energy sources?
Climate change, energy security, and economic growth are key factors driving the need for the US to find alternative energy sources. By diversifying the energy mix and reducing dependence on fossil fuels, the US can mitigate climate change, enhance national security, and promote economic development.
Why does us need to find alternative energy sources?
Dependence on fossil fuels causes environmental damage.
Why does the US need to find alternative energy sources?
Dependence on fossil fuels causes environmental damage.
Why are scientists trying to find alternative energy sources now?
Scientists are trying to find alternative energy sources to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, which contribute to climate change. By using cleaner, renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydroelectric power, we can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create a more sustainable energy future.
Why did the US need to find alternative-energy sources?
The US needed to find alternative energy sources for several reasons, including decreasing reliance on finite fossil fuels, reducing environmental impact from burning these fuels, increasing energy security, and addressing climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Diversifying the energy sources also helps to stabilize energy prices and promote innovation in the energy sector.
Would ocean energy help reduce the use of nonrenewable resources?
Any alternative energy source can help achieve this. The question is whether you can find a practical way to use such energy.
How do you find out about side affects of alternative therapies with conventional medecine?
Since alternative therapies and conventional medicines can, and often do interact, it is important to check the possibilities of the interactions. There are websites where you can do that.
