Homework: Renewable and nonrenewable energy sources

RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES NONRENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES

the big benefits of using
renewable sources for our energy
supply:
They'll never run out. That's right -
these natural energy sources can
replace themselves, making them
sustainable and abundant natural
resources.
They don't damage our
planet. These clean energy
sources are non-pollutant,
produce minimal or no waste
products, and don't contribute to
global warming - great news for
the environment!
They're low-maintenance energy
sources. Renewable energy
facilities tend to require less
maintenance than traditional
 generators. And as they come
from natural, abundant resources,
the operating costs are generally
lower too.
They're good news for regional
areas. As most renewable energy
projects are located in regional
areas - away from the big cities -
they can bring economic benefits
to these places. For example, this
could come from more people
using local services.

DISADVANTAGE At the present time, most
S renewable energy generators are
expensive to set up. Also,
unreliable weather can affect
energy supply. As renewable
energy often relies on certain
weather conditions, this can
impact the reliability of a constant
energy supply. For example: Hydro
generators need enough rain to fill
dams for their supply of flowing
water. Wind turbines need wind
to turn their blades. Solar panels
need clear skies and sunshine to
get the heat needed to generate
electricity.
One of the major disadvantages of non
renewable energy that it's time
consuming. Non renewable energy can
be dangerous and cause respiratory
problems to human, they are rapidly
destroy the ozone layer, many of them
creates smoke which envelopes the
buildings and other important things,
their shipping can be risky because they
are deadly for the sea animals and they
can be expensive and occupy a lot of
space. Moreover, there are a lot of
health risks.

It's hard to produce the same

amounts as non-renewable
sources. It can be difficult to
generate quantities of electricity
that are as large as those
produced by traditional fossil fuel
generators.

What is a carbon footprint?

Everything we do, buy, or eat impacts a person’s carbon footprint either directly or indirectly. Driving
to work or flying cross country for a vacation directly results in carbon emissions, while buying
something online from China has an indirect carbon emission effect. The important thing to realize is
that while carbon emissions don’t directly affect people or the environment, they do cause the
planet to warm, which then has a lot of impacts including rising sea levels with their impacts to
people and property, more severe wildfires and droughts and the resulting impacts to nature,
agriculture, etc.
