Plants and many bacteria, use the sunlight to make food. They then eventually go up the food chain to us, and thus we get the energy to move around or even walk. We have to get the energy from these guys because we don'r get our energy from the sun.

Also, pretty much all the things we burn as fuel (gasoline, wood, charcoal, coal, natural gas, etc) originally came from plant sources, which as stated above got their energy from the sun (sometimes millions of years ago). Burning them releases the stored energy.

Is hydroeletricity a natural disater?

No. IN fact, it is arguably the greenest form of energy that exists today. It means 'water produced energy'. (If you didn't get that, I meant that hydroelectricity is the form of converting water's energy to electrical energy). It is very much not a natural disaster at all.

Is the energy renewable?

Yes the sun is regarded as renewable energy. We can use it as much as we like today and there's still just as much coming at us tomorrow.A:The sun is not renewable energy source, it is regarded as an inexhaustible energy source because it should last for about 4.5 billion years more. To be renewable it would have to be able to be reconstructed or repowered as it ran down - we can't do this No, the sun will eventually explode in billions of years to come
