Question #3

Renewable energy means using natural factors such as wind or solar effectively. Nonrenewable energy means using natural factors like oil or and nuclear supplies that can not be used again. No matter if the source of energy is renewable or non, it can still change form. There is the same amount of energy here on Earth as there was 25 years ago, it is just in another form or place.

The effects on the enviornment from nonrenewable resourses is alot worse than the effects from renewable resourses. The emmitions from the exhaust of oil and burnings of plastic is breaking down our ozone layer. Damage to this huge cover over us is leting in the ultraviolet rays that is harmful to our skin. There is not actually a hole but rather it is thinning away and is becoming more and more useless.

If we keep using nonrenewable resources we will soon have no more to use. We will have to convert fully to renewable ones such as wind and solar power energies. Not only will our resourses be limited but also the price will go up as well because the demand for it will be higher. So in the future we need to start using our resourses effectively and to think of more efficiant ways to process energy.
