Which renewable energy source was first used by humans?
The first renewable energy source used by humans was likely wood, as it was used for heating and cooking thousands of years ago.
How do renewable energy resources affect our communities?
If this was done without the renewable energy sources in place to take over there would be complete collapse of everything that we do. Hospitals, food, heat, cooling/refrigeration of foods, computers, internet. Basically everything that you take for granted. First find the other resources, then phase out the fossil fuel dependency. We can't "cold turkey" off of fossil fuels.
When renewable energy was discovered?
Renewable energy sources have been used historically for centuries, such as windmills and water wheels. In modern times, the concept of renewable energy gained momentum in the 1970s during the oil crisis, leading to increased research and development of technologies like solar, wind, and geothermal energy.
Is nuclear energy renewable?
No, it is not renewable
What are 2 types of energy sources?
First, energy sources are usually split into kinetic and potential. Kinetic energy is the energy of something in motion: the earth in orbit about the sun has kinetic energy. The earth also has kinetic energy due to its rotation. The moon orbiting the earth has kinetic energy, but the moon does not rotate. A car zipping along the highway has kinetic energy as does a train moving on a track. Potential energy is something which can become energy. A rock resting on top of a building can fall off the edge and gravity will pull it downward faster and faster. We say it had potential energy on top of the building's gravity well and this became kinetic energy as it fell. When the rock strikes ground, its kinetic energy will convert to thermal energy warming it and the earth beneath it. Other forms of potential energy include water held by a dam, a gas which has been compressed, and chemicals which can react, such as chemical batteries.
Is copper renewable non renewable or flow resource?
copper isn't even an energy in the first place. It conducts power and releases and carries energy from one pace to another. but know it is not a non-renewable or renewable resource.
What subjects would help prepare for a renewable energy degree ?
First in foremost you need to take a basic resources class to establish firm ground in having knowledge in the energy industry, Also going into environmental classes may have subject areas related to renewable energies.

What are the alternatives to nonrenewable energy resources?
First you need a list of Renewable and Non-Renewable ResourcesNon-RenewableFossil FuelsNuclearRenewableBiomassGeothermal EnergySolar EnergyWindHydro ElectricalNow that you know what they are you can start using them to overcome the non-renewable to get to the renewable. People are working to do that today. But there are ways you can help. You can turn off lights when not i use, take shorter showers, etc. This will conserve the energy and hopefully if everyone would do some it would speed up the process. This problem will soon be over.

What are the environmental impacts of the renewable resources?
Renewable sources of energy (solar, wind, wave, hydro, geothermal) have a low environmental impact. They typically have a carbon footprint during their manufacture, which is compensated for adequately during the first period of their lives.Non-renewable sources of energy, like fossil fuels, have a high environmental impact. They typically emit carbon dioxide emissions of greenhouse gas which are the main cause of global warming.
Why are renewable resources a solution to your fossil fuel problem?
I believe you are asking why renewable resources are a solution to our fossil fuel problem? First, we need to define these problems. Since fossil fuels are not unlimited sources of fuel (non-renewable) we will eventually use all the commercially recoverable fossil fuels. As the supply becomes scarce, the price will go up. Second, burning fossil fuels cause pollution, which includes air contaminents that are can be unsafe to breath (carbon monoxide in particular), acid rain and global warming. I would say that renewable resources are part of the solution. However, experts warn that non-polluting sources of energy, such as wind power and hydroelectric, can not provide for all our energy needs. Finding ways to conserve energy, such as using energy efficient appliances, particularly air conditioning, also helps. See related links.
Which are the most ethical renewable energy companies?
The current leading renewable energy companies are BrightSource Energy, First Solar, Gamesa, GE Energy, Goldwind, Sinovel, Suntech, Trina Solar, Vestas, and Yingli. All of these companies aim to be as ethically and environmentally sound as possible.
When did we start to use renewable energy?
Renewable energy is the first source of energy. Trees or gathered wood wer eued for fuel, In area without trees gahtered dung was burnt, Oil lamps contained fat, vegetable oils or bees wax.
What are the similarities between fossil fuel and hydroelectric?
They both produce electricity, the first is clean and renewable, the second is not.
Which of the 8 forms of energy are renewable?
The main 8 types of energy are: 1) Potential Energy 2) Kinetic Energy 3) Light Energy 4) Heat Energy 5) Sound Energy 6) Electrical Energy 7) Chemical Energy and 8) Magnetic Energy If this is what you meant, then potential, kinetic, light, heat, sound and magnetic energy are all renewable, and most types of chemical energy (not things like nuclear fission / fusion). Electrical energy can be renewable, depending on how it's generated. Which is why I think you may have meant power, not energy. If so, the main types of renewable power are: 1) Solar 2) Wind 3) Tidal 4) Wave 5) Geothermal 6) Hydroelectric 7) Biomass Hope that helps :)
