Renewable energy is the future
Most of our energy comes from fossil fuels. Burning them increases the amount of greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere. If we continue to use fossil fuels the way we do now, we will soon run (26) __________ of them.
Fortunately, we no longer have to depend only on fossil fuels like oil, coal, and natural gas. We can use renewable energy from sources such as wind, rain, waves, and sunlight, which can be replaced (27) __________. In addition, such energy has a low environmental impact. Renewable energy used to be very expensive. In recent years, (28) __________, it has become cheaper and easier to produce thanks to technological advances.
Wind energy is one of the cleanest and most sustainable type of energy. It does not release carbon emissions and is entirely renewable as there will always be wind. Solar power is the most (29) __________ source of renewable energy. It exists in large quantities and is freely available. It is also completely renewable as the sun will keep on shining. Hydropower, a form of renewable energy that uses the force of fast-moving water to produce electricity, is even more reliable than solar or wind power.
There are other types of renewable energy available. In the future, we will need to use more renewable energy sources to (30) __________ our energy needs and reduce the negative impact of global warming.
