Energy
Fossil fuels
Nuclear
Solar
Fossil fuels are not renewable, meaning they cannot be continuously used again when they are used up until another billion of years later for it to reproduce.
Solar energy is renewable. It is light absorbed by solar panels that is soon converted to electricity
Solar energy does not give off any air pollution
Nuclear energy is clean, and gives no air pollution. Lots of energy can be released from small amounts of Uranium.
Nuclear is also nonrenewable. It is energy released from the splitting of Uranium atoms transforming into thermal energy that goes to turbines to produce electricity
Solar energy, although, is expensive to have, th location can be a problem, and it is also sun dependent which can become a dilemma.
Fossil fuels is the energy that were from plants that were living millions of years ago, and are now burned to run either machines, or to generate electricity.
Coal wad the first fossil fuel utilized, and its very easy to get out from the ground, for it is inexpensive.
However, waste that is produced can be dangerous, and the rate at which the use of nuclear energy is slower than fossil fuels
Geothermal
There is a great amount of carbon dioxide released , and the strip mining changes the geology
The location is very far from the population of a city, and the construction cost is very high
Geothermal is renewable, and there is no air pollution. It can be built underground, and there is no carbon.
Water
This is using heat that is deep in the Earth to heat homes and make electricity. It can also run other turbines.
Wind
Water is renewable and it traps energy that is from moving water, and turns turbines that transfer energy.
Wind energy is also renewable. Wind turns the windmills making the turbines spin to generate electricity
Biomass
However, wind can harm wildlife, and the installation for the turbines include a lot of investments
Once a dam is built for this, the cost of everything decreases. It also has no air pollution, and there isn't any waste disposal.
However, water energy can disrupt the river system and alter the geology.
Wind does not give off air pollution and is not that expensive.
Biomass is renewable and is organic matter that converts to fuel when used.
Biomass can convert waste into fuel, and is not highly expensive.
Biomass takes up a lot of land, and sometimes the geography of the land can limit the types of Biomass
