Question

Why are we looking at alternate sources of energy?

Answer 1

Fossilfuels, which have been traditionally used by human beings as anenergy sources, are non-renewable sources of energy. These sources ofenergy are limited and cannot replenish on their own. They are beingconsumed at a large rate. If this rate of consumption continues, thenthe fossil fuels would be exhausted from the Earth. Therefore, wehave to conserve the energy sources. Hence, we should look foralternate sources of energy.
