is increasingly prevalent.
However
, it is encouraged to use alternative energy
sources
. In my opinion, I completely agree with
this
for two main reasons.
First
, renewable
sources
including
wind
and solar
power
are beneficial to the environment and
second
, they are more economical compared to their fossil counterparts. In terms of alternative energy
sources
,
wind
and solar
power
are environmentally friendly because they do not release any toxic gases into the atmosphere after exploiting them. The result of using these
sources
is to create electricity to

exploitation of them has to depend on advanced drills and other expensive tools. In conclusion, it is true that the usage of fossil
