Finding Safer Alternative Energy – Reasons For Its Urgency
Our country reels from energy-related problems. The price of gasoline continues to rise. More threats come from the unpredictable economic and political conditions in the Middle East, Iraq, Iran and other countries. If anything, these problems have indicated the extent of dependence of the United States economy on imported oil.
The need to chart new directions on the matter of energy production and supply has become unavoidable for Americans. We need to cut our dependence on imported oil and find viable alternative energy sources. Experts contend that the time for relatively cheap fuel is over, and that we must be ready to pay for its escalating cost unless we succeed in developing cost-effective alternative energy sources. With our technologically-advanced and energy-dependent society, the need for fresh technologically and financially viable alternative energy cannot be avoided.
The environmentalists add their voices to the call for a swift to alternative fuel due to damages inflicted on the environment by petroleum-generated power. Globan warming, water and air pollution have been identified as some of the many environmental risks we expose ourselves to from extensive use of fossil fuel.
Nevertheless, we must also exercise caution in developing alternative energy. Coal, for example, is not inspiring. It is dirty, dangerous to extract, and is also harmful to the environment. Surely, there must be other alternative sources of energy that are safer to process and more environment-friendly, and to which we must turn our primary focus.
Other countries are likewise hard pressed to pursue an alternative energy agenda. It can be assumed that they also contribute to the worsening global climate, and the responsibility for addressing the problem needs to be shared by all. European countries and the United States have made initial advances in the search for alternative energy towards not only reducing their dependence on fossil fuel but also on cleaning up the environment.
The developing countries need to follow our lead in collecting relevant research data and developing alternative energy technologies. The level of government and private research and development collaboration in this field augurs well for strengthening our technological edge. Added benefits thus await from bright prospects of marketing these technologies to other countries.
Other alternative sources of energy that continue to merit further investigation are hydro-electric technology, bio-fuels from trees and beans, natural gas, atomic energy plants, hydrogen cells, and solar energy. Currently getting extra attention from experts is determining the overall viability of wind and solar energy, as well as of generating electricity with hydrogen.
Expectations are high that more sources of better quality alternative energy can be found and put in operation while research and development in this field continues. By then we can look forward to ride our cars and sustain our technologically advanced societies with less fear of further damaging our environment.
