Why is it important that you increase the use of energy from renewable sources?

Because when you depend on energy sources which are not renewable and they run out, you are (for lack of a better descriptive and effective term) screwed. However, dependence on renewable sources means you will hypothetically never run out of energy and renewable sources are typically cheap; the only cost is the initial setup and maintenance.


What resources are used faster than replaced?

It is either called non-renewable resources or depleting resources. I believe many would get confused of the term non-renewable for the fact that fossil fuel did classified as non-renewable but actually it could renew at very slow rate. Itshould be called a depleting resource better. However, considering the renewing rate is extremely slow it is then just classified as another non-renewable.


Compare traditional methods of generating electricity versus renewable energy sources?

Traditional methods use a supply of steam to drive a turbine/generator. The steam can be produced using fossil fuels or nuclear energy. Renewable sources would be wind or solar power mainly. Hydro power could be considered renewable also. These methods don't involve the steam cycle, which can only be up to about 40 percent efficient.


Why are renewable sources of energy better than nonrenewable sources?

because they can be replenished (apex)


How can you conserve nonrenewable sources of energy?

One way to conserve nonrenewable resources is to not use them. If they are nonrenewable then they can never come back. The smartest thing would be to find new better resources that never run out.

Is nuclear waste renewable or nonrenewable?

Renewable and nonrenewable resources are being used every day. Both these resources help us with everyday life, although some are better for the economy than others. They are both sources of Energy.


Is it better to rely on renewable or nonrenewable resources?

We rely on it for electricity we burn Coal to get heat that gets generated to electricity


It is better to use renewable or nonrenewable resources for energy?

Renewable because you can use it over and over again without running out, sort of like recycling paper and plastic. With nonrenewable resources, however, once you use it it's done, and it goes straight to the landfills. Not only would landfills overload if we used nonrenewable resources over renewable resources, but we would run out of that resource or material because of the fact that you can't use it over and over again


Why is it better to use renewable than nonrenewable?

Renewable resources are better, as they can be used over and over, like wind, water and sunlight. Non-renewables are usually polluting, like coal, which is one of the causes of climate change.


What new energy sources are better for the environment and produce electricity?

New energy resources better for the environment are called renewable or alternate energy forms. They include solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass, biofuel and hydrogen.


Why is a renewable source of energy a better option to generate electricity than a non-renewable source of energy?

A renewable source of energy (sunlight, wind or water power, etc) is an better option to generate electricity because it is a natural source of energy and renews itself again and again. It also releases no carbon dioxide pollution into the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.A:Renewable energy sources are much better in the long run. Renewable energy sources never run out. We can constantly use renewable energy sources however non-renewable energy sources will run out eventually with consistent consumption. A great example of a renewable energy sources is solar power. We will never run out of energy from the sun. A:They are important because they can be replenished and they do not harm our environment and they are eco-friendly


How are non-renewable energy resources better than renewable resources?

Generally they are more convenient and portable. Most of our energy is produced by non renewable sources and society is, presently, adapted to that. Many people would say they were not better, because of the carbon they are putting into the atmosphere. They are cheaper at the moment because few countries have a price on carbon. See the related question below.


Different shapes of renewable from non renewable resources?

Non renewable resources can not be replaced once they are gone they are gone for good. Renewable ones can be recycled in away and therefore are better for the Earth.


How are renewable resources important to us?

by using renewable resources we can save the environment. Most of the time non-renewable resources are bad for the environment by destroying the ozone. gas and coal are examples of non-renewable resources. another reason renewable resources are better is because they are well, renewable. that way we can never run out. examples would be hydroelectric, solar, and wind power
