Governments should make more effort to promote alternative sources of energy. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

No doubt that many

countries

have been planning to set up new renewable power

stations

in order to overcome the crisis of high increasing prices of

oil

and

gas

besides

the

fact

that

oil

has been a political weapon used by some

countries

to put pressure on other economies. Many scientists and experts confirm that investing in renewable

energy

is a must due to the

fact

that

oil

,

gas

and coal have been considered a source of pollution

in addition

to being non-renewable

sources

of

energy

, the planet has been terribly affected by the fumes of cars and factories that led to a huge problem to the planet which is global warming, one of the reasons some governments invest in solar

energy

is that it's cheaper and if consider Australia as our example, the government has noticed that the cost of setting up normal

electricity

stations

or extending the lines of

electricity

to far areas is much more expensive than financing the process of setting up solar panels and electric batteries in these far cities, some people who have done that confirm that it's a huge investment but it's worthy because sometimes they consume less

electricity

than the panels produce so the rest is sent back to the panel and they get paid for these watts.

Although

benefits of renewable

sources

of

energy

are not endless, it's a

fact

that many industries still rely on fuel and

gas

, even the new electric car models have not proven the same performance of those that operate using fuel, even we saw that some

countries

have suffered from drought of some rivers which caused to partial pausing of nuclear

stations

that depend on water as a cooler,

then

they have to go back to

oil

and

gas

again, there are two ways for them to get

gas

, the

first

one is get it through pipelines that connect her with a producing neighboring country, the

second

one is to get it as a liquid and it's even more expensive because of shipping cost so it's a

fact

that the number of

oil

tanks a country has in its storages measures how strong it is and it's a big crisis if it tries to depend on that storage because it's a danger to the security of the

economy

in the future so

countries

try to consume and save some in order to make a balance to the prices and the whole

economy

. As far as I'm concerned, I agree that governments have to find alternative

sources

of

energy

because it's important to rely on various

sources

because there's no guarantee that some

sources

are going to be working all days of the year, some

stations

require some maintenance which leads to partial pausing of the operation and

then

you have to have another source to satisfy the consumption of people and the industry as well, some

countries

tend to get loans to finance the

energy

sector to reduce the prices of

electricity

to both people and factories which is a big danger to the

economy

on the long term. In conclusion, it's a must to invest in renewable and alternative

sources

of

energy

due to many reasons and

this

fact

won't help us do without traditional

sources

of

energy

but to save the

economy

and be ready for the future
