    ALTERNATIVE ENERGY

    Introduction

    What would you do if fossil fuels ran out? The objects that work on fossil
    fuels will stop working. Hello, my name is Anojan. Today I will talk about
    the six types of alternative energy: Solar, Hydro, Nuclear, Wind,
    Geothermal, and Bio energy.

    Solar Energy

    The solar energy comes from our own star, the Sun. The sun’s energy
    reaches Earth as heat and light. We use solar power for many different
    things such as drying clothes, growing crops, and even running cars! We
    capture the energy using solar panels. Now here are some benefits: The
    creation of solar energy requires little maintenance, they are a silent
    producer of energy, and solar electricity power plants produce zero
    emissions.

    Hydro energy

    Hydro energy comes from flowing or falling water. We use water power for
    many things including electricity. We capture water power using
    hydroelectric power plants. Now here are some benefits: They do not
    cause pollution of air, land, or water, and they have low operating costs,
    and are reliable.
    Nuclear Energy

    Nuclear energy can be used for electricity. We can capture nuclear energy
    by storing the energy made from uranium. Now here are some benefits:
    The generation of electricity through nuclear energy reduces the amount of
    energy generated from fossil fuels. Less use of fossil fuels means lowering
    greenhouse gas emissions.

    Wind Energy

    Wind is everywhere! We harness the wind using wind turbines. Now here
    are some benefits: Wind energy releases no pollution, wind power is free
    and inexhaustible, and wind energy is one of the low cost renewable
    energy and makes a job for local people.

    Geothermal Energy

    Geothermal energy is the heat from the Earth. Below Earth's crust, there is
    a layer of hot and molten rock, called magma. Heat is continually produced
    in this layer. As the heat builds up, it pushes underground water up.
    Finally, the hot water shoots up into the sky which we call a geyser. We
    collect that heat and use it for heating, cooking, raising plants in
    greenhouses, heating water at fish farms, and several industrial processes,
    such as pasteurizing milk. Geothermal power plants drill their own holes
    into the rock to more effectively capture the steam and make electricity.
    Now here are some benefits: Geothermal power is cost effective, reliable,
    sustainable, and environmentally friendly.

    Bio Energy

    Bioenergy is a renewable energy resource derived from living organisms


    and/or their byproducts. Biomass is any organic material which has stored
    sunlight in the form of chemical energy. As a fuel it may include wood,
    wood waste, straw, manure, sugarcane, and many other byproducts from a
    variety of agricultural processes. We used biomass energy or bio energy
    for thousands of years. Now here are some benefits: Bio energy is cost
    saving and makes less landfills.

    Conclusion

    I challenge you to use alternative fuel and cut out the fossil fuels. Make the
    Earth a better place to live. Thank you for listening to my presentation!
