What is energy? Energy is something we use everyday in tv ,fridges, microwaves, and many other ways. In our world, there are many sources of energy. Some of these sources are biomass, fossil fuels, solar power, and wind. These alternatives have many effects on the world on small things and big things.Today, we will be looking at 2 of the most major sources of power which are solar power and fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are energy sources from underground such as coal, and oil. So1lar power is a source of energy that is from the sun and space. Now let’s learn about fossil fuels and solar power.

Did you know that fossil fuels are almost 90% of our energy. Fossil fuels and solar power affect our world’s environment, energy use, and economy in many ways. Environment modification is expected because of these 2 fuels. The fossil fuel and solar power alterations will have to happen to the energy use. The economy is going to be changed harshly. As you can see many of these crucial, everyday things are going to be altered. If you will be reading this blog, then you will be able to learn about how many important things will be changed by sources of energy.

The environment will be modified by fossil fuels and solar power. One of the effects on the environment by solar panel manufacturing is that they release Co2. Co2 is something that is released in the environment and then it is known as greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases cause climate change also known as global warming.. An effect that is made by fossil fuels is that they release not only Co2, but they also release nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide. Those types of elements are harmful to breathe. Clearly, we can see that fossil fuels and solar power affect our environment in many ways.

Energy use can be changed harshly. Fossil fuels are the most used energy in the world, so that affects energy use ,because many people use it. Solar power has changed energy use since many people want renewable resources. They have been getting solar power ,making it one of the leading energy fuels. These are major changes to our energy use.

The economy is one of the most beneficial things in the world. If you can see it will be altered in a lot of ways. One of the modifications by solar power is that it costs less than most other types of fuels that will alter the economy since more people will buy this fuel. When more people buy it, the economy will boom. Unlike solar power fossil fuels are very expensive, but are bought a lot. American consumers spend 700 billion to 1 trillion dollars [enviromentamerica.org] on fossil fuels. Obviously, The economy is changing a lot.

Many alternatives of energy can modify just as much as the 2 amazing energies we have learned about. These energy sources have many changes in our world. In my perspective I hope that later on we will not have to use fossil fuels, and we will preserve nature. Alternative sources are needed, so that in my later blogs I will not write about these bad changes, and only write about good changes. Clearly, sources of energy can affect our environment, energy use, and the economy.

Thanks,
