Renewable
energy
sources
,
such
as solar or wind power, have become effective alternatives in recent years, so some
people
recommend replacing fossil
fuels
with them.
On the other hand
though, there still some who prefer to continue using fossil
fuels
, as they are cheaper. Both of these notions are logical, but arguments exist. Many
people
support the idea of turning to renewable
energy
sources
as soon as possible.
This
might be more understandable if we think about the causes that fossil
fuels
have to the environment. In order to mine coal or gas, a large piece of land is destroyed from deep holes digging.
On the other hand
, solar panels and air generators’ placement is easier and more environmentally friendly. To illustrate
this
, in northern Greece, many air generators have been placed in specific areas, where no nature has been damaged, that the cities are now powered by wind power only.
Furthermore
, as the word renewable indicates, these
sources
are unlikely to end anytime soon. The sun and air are not limited, so the only thing that needs to be done is to use them wisely to our advantage.
Thus
, it will be more effective if we start using these
sources
of
energy
.
However
, there are still some
people
who believe we should continue using fossil
fuels
. The main reason for
that is
the pricing. Fossil
fuels
’ cost is significantly lower than that of renewable
energy
sources
. With
this
in mind, there are many houses that may afford
such
expenses, so they still prefer using conventional ways.
For example
, in poor villages, families would probably mind taking care of their members, by providing everything at a low cost and not spending a fortune on
energy
sources
.
Moreover
, there are several countries’ interests at stake that concerns fossil
fuels
mining. If we think about the power some countries have, we could immediately realize how difficult it would be to phase out fossil
fuels
’ use. The wars that have been happening, for many years now, for
this
reason, are only the tip of the iceberg. To sum up, a change to renewable
energy
sources
would be an environmentally friendly solution with great potential.
However
, we cannot overlook the great expense of it and the fact that many
people
will not be able to afford it.
