As fuels like coal and oil are running out, many specialists have been developing alternative enery sources such as wind power, solas power, and water power. We can use natural resources forever and we do not need to be worried about running out of them. However, it is possible for them to cause some problems, so some professors insist that these resources like natural energy also cause environmental damage like oil and nuclear power. I slightly agree with this opinion for the following reasons.
First, in the case of wind power, whenever we use the fan which is used to harness wind energy, it makes some noise. Therefore, we can not build it near houses sice the sound is too loud. Even though it is built in the deep mountains, it is possible for it to not only destroy an ecosystem in the mountain but also to make the costs that we spend using energy increase. The machine look ugly and too big, so it also spoils the surroundings.
Second, solar energy is the most popular alternative energy but it also has some problems. If we want to use the energy, we should get wide spaces for the dish tha can collect sunshine. We sometimes use small size dish that we can see in the roof but it is not enough to collect light because of the weather. As we know, every day is not sunny. It is sometimes rainy and cloudy. That is why we need massive dishes and spaces to build them. These spaces disrupt the environment that is near them.
In addition, Burning waste releases toxic materials like CO, Co2. These gases are really harmful to us and to nature. In using water power, we should set up some equipment like a dam. In this process, these machines also destroy the environment.
In conclusion, many alternative energy resources can be good resources that we can expend in the future but these are more developed than now. For using these resource, specialists and professors should keep studying about natural resources like wind, solar, and water power. |
