Renewable Energy by Sydney Dame

 


What is Renewable Energy?
    Most people might not realize the amount fossil fuels we use up on a daily basis. Whether you are driving to work or using natural gases to heat your stove, you are using fossil fuels. What most people don't realize are the hazards that come along with using these sources of energy; these fuels are not easily replenished and require vast amounts of deforestation to get to some of these fuels. By switching to renewable energy we can cut down on the amount of fossil fuels used. Hydropower, wind, and solar are some of the greatest renewable energy resources because these are easy everyday occurrences that happen all the time. If we all take steps to decreasing the amount of fossil fuels we us by replacing them with renewable resources we can decrease our carbon dioxide emissions.

    Liked how you gave examples about the different ways we use fossil fuels in your beginning statement. I also liked how you identified the problem that comes along with the consumption of using fossil fuels and how you also explained how renewable energy could help solve that problem. While also giving examples of everyday occurrences that we can use for renewable energy. For example, hydropower, wind, and solar

    I really like how you opened this post with relating to someones everyday life. Your picture is also very vibrate which makes me want to read the post. People really do need to realize how much our everyday activities affect the earth. There are so many things that we could do differently to help cut down the amount of fossil fuel that are being released. Like you said we could use hydropower, wind and solar energy which are all great was to decrease the amount of fossil fuels that are being released. This is a great post. I really enjoyed reading it!

    I like how you started by explaining the different examples of how people use fossil fuels, and that even doing the basics in a morning can have such a major impact, and have side effects on the carbon dioxide emissions. I also think that the picture that you chose was very good as it highlights in bright colors the renewable energy pointing one way as if it were towards the future, and the other and old fossil fuels are dark and dull pointing to the other way as if it were the past and we need to move forward.

Electric and Hybrid Vehicles - Sydney Dame

 Electric and Hybrid Vehicles     More and more we see ads for hybrid or full electric vehicles, which could be one of the best things we could do for this earth. One of the biggest sources of our own carbon footprint is the vehicles we drive, the fuel we use are drastically depleting our supply of fossil fuels. These fully electric and hybrid cars are great stepping stones to reduce the amount of fossil fuels we use, by going electric we can use the energy produced by the sun to charge these vehicles making driving an overall cleaner daily task. Hybrid cars are both battery powered and use gasoline but in a smaller quantity than an all gas powered car. The further we get into the future the more we see different car companies and brands putting out hybrid or fully electric cars and soon to come trucks.      For more information regarding electric and hybrid vehicles visit:  https://www.jdpower.com/cars/shopping-guides/hybrid-vs-electric-cars-how-they-...
