GRE-EN-ERGY The Journey to Sustainability. [pic] By Vijeta Kavethkar Green energy is the need of the hour to sustain our energy requirements. Green energy includes natural energetic processes that can be harnessed with little pollution. Anaerobic digestion, geothermal power, wind power, small-scale hydropower, solar energy, biomass power, tidal power, wave power, and some forms of nuclear power (ones which are able to "burn" nuclear waste through a process known as nuclear transmutation

electricity exerts a significant influence on individual's life, not only because the high demand of production in each country, also the diversity of peoples' lives. Therefore, the raw materials, such as oil, coal and gas, are highly demanded in the world. Known to all, however, these materials which are mentioned above are non-renewable resources, and their reserves will certainly, continuously and greatly decrease, so, exactly it is vital to reverse the irrational use of non-renewable resources. In

Sergio A Segovia 11/30/2015 ENG 1302 Dr. Cunningham Taking Control of Air Pollution in Mexico City In 1992, the United Nations described Mexico City’s air as the most polluted on the planet. Six years later, that air earned Mexico the reputation of “the most dangerous city in the world for children” — a reputation Mexico has been working hard to improve. But despite more than a decade of stringent pollution control measures, a haze hangs over the city most days, obscuring the surrounding snow-capped

Alternative Energy With the world economy growing at a fast pace, energy demand too has been witnessing a sharp rise in the past few decades, with demand mainly originating from the big developing economies of Asia, namely, India and China. Factors such as high population growth, growing urbanisation and changing lifestyles in these developing nations are behind the increase in demand for energy. According to International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates, during 1990-2008, while world population increased

Solar energy is produced by the sun. It’s the energy transmitted from the sun in the form of electromagnetic radiation. It is taken from the sun and converted into electrical/ thermal energy. Solar is actually the Latin word for sun. There are many reasons why solar energy is better for the environment but there are some down sides. The earth receives about 1,366 watts of direct solar radiation per square meter. In one second the sun produces energy to meet the current needs of the entire Earth

kinetic energy, electrical energy the movement of electrons, thermal energy heat of an object, and radiant energy light and warmth of the sun are all energies that can be converted to another form of energy. For example, the chemical energy stored in the muscles of our legs is converted to kinetic energy or mechanical energy when we pedal, a toaster oven plugged into an electrical socket takes electrical energy and converts it to heat/thermal energy, and radiant energy converted to heat energy provided
