Wind Energy Pros And Cons

We preserve our planet for future generations by looking at the role science is playing to cut down carbon-based energy to move to renewable low-carbon energy to meet our constantly increasing demands of electricity consumption. Green electricity benefits us to produce electricity from sources which would not harm or pollute our environment. For sure, few electricity bases may also have influences but they are much greener than the others. The most suitable energy sources are the renewable energy sources, as they will never expire or run out. (Figueiredo, João Neiva De, 2014) Nuclear energy is number one in the production of electricity.

The 3 resources,"The Power of the Wind , Deacon Residential and Commercial Wind Turbines, and Wind Turbines 101 are about how wind energy is beneficial to human life.The text" The Power of The Wind "has a strong argument , while " Deacon Residential and Commercial Turbines" has a weak argument while the video,"Wind Turbines 101" needs some improvement. The text "The Power of the Wind" is strong because the text has good reasoning because the author has logical reasoning to support his claim and he never uses bias. That statement is proved because in Paragraph 5 it includes,"Wind is an excellent for of energy because it is renewable, meaning that it will always be replenished by itself." This proves my claim because it shows that he states true facts and that it is logical because compared to coal and oil who emit gases and it is not renewable so it proves that wind power if beneficial. another piece of evidence from the txt includes,"However wind turbines cannot be placed just anywhere...Both

Not many people know about hydraulic fracturing or fracking. Many think if they do not know what it is then it is not important. That is very untrue. Whether fracking continues or ceases, the impact will affect the United States of America. Although it has a possibility of harming the environment, fracking is great for the economy and is environmentally better than other resources such as coal mining.

(Woodford, 2007) According to Moyo (2016), Wind energy, which involves using air to turn turbines and generate electricity, is regarded as one of the most reliable, cheap, renewable and clean forms of power that do not pollute the environment in comparison to other types such as thermal. Nowadays, windmills have been used for alternative energy purposes. Others for tourism purposes and there are also windmills that are still being used for agricultural purposes. But nowadays, the windmills are mostly known for energy production, which can be used as an alternative to the dependence on fossil fuels. Since fossil fuels are being burnt and ignited for the generation of electricity, its emission into the atmosphere causes ozone layer destruction which follows to global warming.

Fossil fuels such as oil and gas are non-renewable, which means they are limited. Solar power energy is renewable. Humans need solar power to use solar panels. Solar panels contain solar cells that use sunlight to make electricity. By harnessing energy from the sun, dependence on more environmentally harmful sources as oil and coal can be decreased.This is a great alternative to these nonrenewable resources.

This was reduced because many of the more dangerous machines used in factory jobs were replaced with more modern and safer machinery. Despite this, “Automation offered two major benefits to manufacturers: it promised both to increase output and to reduce labor costs” (130). As seen here, automation improved factory jobs and made the most out of what technological advancement could bring. Previously in technology, automation was not as favored because it simply wasn’t as good or desired as seen by the automation that removes hot coil springs from a coiling machine. This machine was soon replaced because modernization in technology which “offered real benefits to workers” when before, machines were “relatively slow, unsafe, and physically demanding” (131).

Nuclear energy is a clean, safe, reliable and competitive energy source. Currently it is seen as the only source of energy to replace other part of fossil fuels which harm the environment and emits large amount of greenhouse gases. Almost no carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides are produced in nuclear plants. Nuclear power should be deployed to replace coal, oil and gas in the industrial countries. In the future, nuclear electric power plants will also provide power for electric vehicles for cleaner transportation.

It is also estimated that there will be more turbines on the market, if there are more businesses in manufacturing, which in result will have a cheaper cost of wind energy. If the wind systems are produced more in the future, the cost will drop even more. “http://greenliving.lovetoknow.com/Efficiency_of_Wind_Energy”. Even though there are benefits to wind energy, there are also some disadvantages about how wind can be unpredictable and may also cause a threat to wildlife. Wind energy may be sometimes unpredictable and is not constant which is why people believe that is it not suited as an energy source.

• Environmentally Friendly – This means that Solar Panels do not cause any pollution, which therefore does not affect the world negatively. • Reduces Electricity Costs – It reduces electricity costs because you can harvest your own electricity to use. • Shared Solar – Because Solar Energy can be run “off the grid” energy produced can be shared. • Low Maintenance – As solar panels are one piece it because a lot less risky that smaller pieces will fall apart or break which lowers cost. • Remote Areas – Solar Panels can help to provide electricity to areas which may be far from another electrical source.

The first benefit is that I will power the machine using solar panels that will be on the surface and will be connected to the machine underground. I think this is a benefit because the machine will use clean energy that will not pollute the air and will be very good for the environment. Another benefit is that the machine will save lives and money considering the damage an earthquake can do without a warning. This is a benefit because we do not want people to die or be troubled by hospital bills that they would have to pay if something went wrong in an earthquake. My last benefit is that it will create more jobs for people to work because there will have to be maintenence done to the machine and people who need to keep an eye on it in case it shows any activity.
