Fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, natural gas, are used in many countries. But in some countries, the use of alternative sources of energy, including wind and solar power, are encouraged. Is this trend a positive or a negative development?

It is irrefutable that fossil fuels are the main source of

energy

in many parts of the world, but renewable substitutes like solar power are getting popularised at an unprecedented rate in some nations. In my opinion, I fully convinced that developing the

alternative

sources of

energy

is positive mainly because of its renewable and e

nvironmental-

friendly features.

To begin

with, It is widely acknowledged that renewable resources

such

as solar power and h

ydropower

is an everlasting source of power and can

thus

be utilized repetitively.

By contrast

, non-renewable resource like fossil fuels can be only used once. Under

this

circumstance, people are l

likely to lack

such

resources because of excessive consumption.

Therefore

, the local government should encourage people to adopt

alternative

sources of

energy

instead

of fossil fuels.

Furthermore

,

instead

of producing poisonous gas into the air,

alternative

resources fully make use of natural resources to generate

energy

without pollution.

For instance

, France has solar panels which converse electricity from sunlight. It is clear that currently both countries reduce polluting the environment and releasing greenhouse gases during operation.

Although

the use of these

alternative

sources has some hurdles

such

as the initial cost of setting up solar panels and wind farms is very high, and these are

also

dependent on the geographical location.

Nevertheless

, once the initial cost has been met with, their maintenance is practically negligible. In conclusion, I firmly believe that the application of the potential

energy

sources to replace conventional

energy

is obviously an important step forward.

Thus

, in order to reduce pollution and establish a sustainable development model, governments should support and encourage the use of renewable

energy

sources and reduce the global dependence on fossil fuels.
