Renewable Energy
 Renewable energy will reduce green
house gases and fuel emissions.
 Its possible: Today in countries such
as Iceland, Tajikistan,
Paraguay, Albania and Lesotho 100 % of
all energy generated comes from
renewable sources.
Renewable Energy
 The problem with renewable energy is
not just opinions of Governments and
business but individuals are well.
 Many motorists do not believe that an
electric vehicle has sufficient power.
 Most of the vehicles produced today are
not electric powered.
Renewable Energy
 Most homes do not have solar panels or
solar hot water systems.
 Some people opinion is based on
outdated facts about renewable energy.
 Efficiency has improved over the last ten
years. http://spie.org/x39220.xml

Renewable Energy
 We will try to change everyone’s opinion
on renewable energy.
Renewable Energy
 Although China, Germany, the United
States, Italy, and Brazil are aggressively
pursuing the development and utilization
of renewable energy not enough is being
done.
 Unfortunately amount on investment into
renewable energy is not sufficient.
Non-Renewable Energy
 Many Governments do not want to knock down
old power plants and old dams that do not
produce electricity.
 Japan and Ukraine have been building many
nuclear power plants over the last decade.

Non-Renewable Energy
 Certain Governments are even
considering building more coal power
stations.
 Thus if we do nothing the use of nonrenewable energy will not disappear any
time soon.
Climate Change
 The devastating environmental affects
cannot be avoided with current levels of
investment.
 Increase in world population will raise
demand for energy resulting in more
pollution and rising temperatures.
