At present, we get much of our energy from nonrenewable energy sources, namely, fossil fuels like coal and oil. As fossil fuels become scarce, it also becomes more expensive.

But we don’t have to be addicted to fossil fuels. New technologies now allow us to harness the potentially unlimited energy from the wind, sun, from water, and from the earth.

If we make are able to take advantage of these renewable energy sources, energy generation will become less expensive. As energy becomes less expensive, benefits will be felt by government, industry, business, and households, creating a multiplier effect that benefits the entire planet.
