WHAT IS ENERGY?

• In physics, energy is a property of objects which can be transferred to other objects or converted into different forms. The "ability of a system to perform work" is a common description, but it is misleading because energy is not necessarily available to do work. For instance, in SI units, energy is measured in joules, and one joule is defined "mechanically", being the energy transferred to an object by the mechanical work of moving it a distance of 1 meter against a force of 1 newton. However, there are many other definitions of energy, depending on the context, such as thermal energy, nuclear energy, etc., where definitions are derived that are the most convenient.

DEFINATIONS

• Renewable energy is energy generated from natural resources—such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides and geothermal heat—which are renewable (naturally replenished). Renewable energy technologies range from solar power, wind power, hydroelectricity/micro hydro, biomass and biofuels plants.

• A nonrenewable resource is a resource of economic value that cannot be readily replaced by natural means on a level equal to its consumption. Most fossil fuels, such as oil, natural gas and coal are considered nonrenewable resources in that their use is not sustainable because their formation takes billions of years.

WHY THE WORLD IS TURNING TO RENEWABLE ENERGY

In these days most of the electricity generation in the world is by coal, diesel and

gas. A large number of these plants are located in each country. As these power

plants are the major sources of the production of greenhouse gases due to this the

climate of earth is changing and increase in globe warming.

WHY NON-RENEWABLE ENERGY IS HARMFUL:

There are following reasons due to which non renewable energy is dangerous:

Production of CO2.

Production water vapor.

Production of nitrous oxide.

Production of other green house gases.

CONTINUED . . .ACCORDING TO AN ONGOING TEMPERATURE ANALYSIS CONDUCTED BY SCIENTISTS AT

NASA'S GODDARD INSTITUTE FOR SPACE STUDIES (GISS), THE AVERAGE

GLOBAL TEMPERATURE ON EARTH HAS INCREASED BY ABOUT 0.8° CELSIUS (1.4°FAHRENHEIT) SINCE 1880.

EFFECTS

There are following effects due to harmful gases:

1. The globle warming is increasing.

2. The glaciers are melting very fast.

3. The ratio of earth quake is increasing.

4. The ratio of tsunami is increasing.

5. The level of ocean is increasing.

MELTING OF GLACIERS

Due to increase in the temperature of earth the ice is melting on the earth, glaciers are melting and even according to the NASA research there are some lakes in the Intartika, those are melting.

EFFECT OF GLACIERS MELTING

Glaciers are melting so the water level in the ocean is increasing, by this the number of tsunami is increasing.

TSUNAMI

A large wave on the ocean, usually caused by an undersea earthquake, a volcanic eruption, or coastal landslide. A tsunami can travel hundreds of miles over the open sea and cause extensive damage when it encounters land.

EARTH QUAKES

A tremor of the surface of the Earth, sometimes severe and devastating, which results from shock waves generated by the movement of rock masses deep within the Earth.

• Cause:

When there are some changing on the upper surface of the earth then it effects the core of the earth. So as the melting of glaciers are disturbing the balance on the earth due to this inside the earth plates move to balance the earth, in this way earthquakes occurs. As the glaciers are melting so due

RENEWABLE POWER PLANTS

There are following renewable energy power plants:

i. Hydro Power Plant.

ii. Wind Power Plant.

iii. Biogas Power Plant.

iv. Tidal Power Plant.

v. Solar Power Plant.

TIDAL POWER PLANT

Tidal power, also called tidal energy, is a form of hydropower that converts the energy obtained from tides into useful forms of power, mainly electricity. Although not yet widely used, tidal power has potential for future electricity generation. Tides are more predictable than wind energy and solar power.

ADVANTAGES OF RENEWABLE OVER NON-RENEWABLE

Renewable energy

• The sources of renewable energy will

never run out.

• It is envoirnment friendly.

• Renewable energy facilities generally

require less maintenance than

traditional generators.

• Renewable energy produces little or

no waste products such as carbon

dioxide or other chemical pollutants, so

has minimal impact on the

environment.

Non renewable energy

• The non-renewable energy resources

are limited.

• It effect the envoirnment badly.

• Non renewable energy plants require

more maintinance.

• Non-renewable enrgy produces a lot of

toxic waste such as sulphor, CO2 and

other chemical pollutants that effect

the envoirnment and play important

role in green house effect.

SAVE THE EARTH’S PRECIOUS RESOURCES

• Reduce the use of non renewable resources that are producing harmful gases and effecting the beautiful envoirnment of the earth.

• Reuse the resources that are favourable to the envoirnment.

• Recycle the things those are the requirement of the greeny envoirnment.

• The World is turning to the renewable energy resources as this will keep the envoirnment greeny, healthy and balance.
