What is the difference between alternative energy and renewable energy?
Alternative energy refers to energy sources that are not derived from fossil fuels and can include both renewable and non-renewable sources, such as nuclear energy. Renewable energy, on the other hand, specifically refers to energy that is generated from natural processes that are continuously replenished, like solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal energy. While all renewable energy is alternative, not all alternative energy is renewable, as some alternatives may have limited availability or generate waste.
What are the types of alternative energy's?
Wind, solar, hydro-electric, biomass and waste to energy plants, wave energy, geothermal and nuclear are a few alternative energy sources among others. All of these have a "net zero" carbon footprint.
What are some good sources of Alternative Energy?
Other than what? Please clarify.Common energy sources (for technological purposes) are fossil fuels (petroleum and coal), nuclear energy, as well as solar energy, wind energy, hydraulic (water) energy, and many others.
What are the 5 types of alternative energy?
Wind, solar, hydro-electric, biomass and waste to energy plants, wave energy, geothermal and nuclear are a few alternative energy sources among others. All of these have a "net zero" carbon footprint.
What are three alterative energy sources?
It is, like all things, what you perceive it to be (or not to be).
Should alternative energy be used instead of traditional energy?
Vague question. "Should" implies personal opinion. For the future of sustainability for the planet, it doesn't matter what type we use at all. In my opinion we will use what is available, and what is available is controlled by profit interests at this time. We "should" do what we have to do to survive.
Where can I learn more about alternative energy?
The Alternative Energy website has a newsletter with all the latest technologies and advances in alternative energy.
What is the best alternative energy?
There are many alternative energy sources, and all have downsides. Nuclear produces huge amounts of waste. Solar and wind are inconsistent and expensive to store. Hydroelectric damages habitats with the ponds it creates, and geothermal can only produce a limited amount of energy in specific conditions. Until we put the money to improve alternative energy, the best way to help the environment is conservation.

What are the environmental impacts of using alternative sources of energy?
BAD WE COULD ALL DIE ^ who ever awnsered that is stupid, alternative energy is helping the world because we r not taking anything from the earth or wearing it out, we r sharing it normal ways and it is giving us life.
What is the main source of energy for all three energy roles and why?
alternative energy
How can you use alternative energy for?
The main reason to use alternative resources for energy is because the energy being used now will not last forever. It will at some point run out if alternative resources are not found. Another reason is to save money.
