Solution
The correct option is C
Solar energy
Solar energy is the ultimate renewable source of energy for our planet. Fossil fuels, coal, firewood etc. burn, releasing high amounts of carbon dioxide and pollutants to the atmosphere. Nuclear energy is an efficient renewable source of energy, but there is a potential risk of catastrophe and also a need for management of radioactive wastes produced by the plant.
