]]> 2017-09-27 00:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/louisacarlisle/9cdvhqhgbsk9/wish/191494173 Pros and Cons https://padlet.com/louisacarlisle/9cdvhqhgbsk9/wish/191494338 Pros:
- Sustainable
- Facilities require less maintenance than traditional generators
- Less disposal of chemical waste and less impact on the environment

Cons:
- Difficult in generating energy for mass consumption
- Insufficient fund due to the renewable energy technology is fairly new to the private investors
- Reliability of supply, the renewable process depends primarily on the weather condition in order to generate the certain amount of energy.
- The cost of renewable energy technologies currently exceed the cost of traditional fuel.

How: infrastructure investment
Problem: not providing profit.

The purpose is to address the concern about the high level of carbon dioxide which is the main factor of the global warming. 
Examples:
- Marine Energy: use of ocean waves
- Hydroelectric: use of flowing water
- Geothermal: use of earth's internal heat
- Solar: use of sunlight power]]> 2017-09-27 00:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/louisacarlisle/9cdvhqhgbsk9/wish/191495854 Fossil fuel: Probably in excess of 50 years before oil production drops below half what is currently.

How: use of solar energy or other alternatives, use less
