golf. Because of this, he created the Tiger Woods Foundation to help make golf open to everyone. He likes to

Solar energy is a long lasting source of energy which can be used almost anywhere. To generate
solar energy, we only need solar cells and the sun. Solar cells can easily be installed on house roofs, so
nonew space is needed and each user can quietly generate their own energy. Compared to other renewable
sources, they also possess many advantages: wind and water power relies on turbines which are noisy,
expensive and easy to break down. Solar cells are totally silent and non-polluting. As they have no moving
parts, they require little maintenance and have a long lifetime.
However, solar energy also has some disadvantages. We can only generate solar energy during
daytime because the system depends on sunlight. Besides,solar cellsrequire large area to work effectively. The
main disadvantageof solar energy is that it costs about twice as much as traditional sources such as coal, oil
and gas. This is because solar cells are expensive. Scientists are hoping that the costs of solar cells will reduce
as more and more people see the advantages ofthis environmentally friendly source of energy.

The forests of the tropics produce a magnificent growth of trees, but commercial lumbering is inhibited
by problems that increase the cost of removal. The proliferation of species that is common to all tropical
forests creates difficulties because many species are worthless. The lumberman combs the forests, therefore,
removing the valuable trees that are convenient to waterways, and floating them downstream to a saw-mill.
Unfortunately, tropical hardwoods tend to grow slowly; an area once cleared needs substantial time to recover,
forcing the saw-mill to become mobile. Distance to market tends to be considerable, raising costs of the high
costs associated with production. Other trees are left untouched.
