Name two energy sources that you would consider to be renewable. Give reasons for your choices
Answer
Two sources of energy that are considered renewable are
-
Wind energy
Winds are caused due to uneven heating of the earth.
This phenomenon is never going to stop happening, hence winds will always be produced.
Hence it can be considered as a renewable source of energy.
-
Solar energy
The energy obtained from the sun is called solar energy.
This energy is released due to nuclear reactions taking place in the sun.
It is estimated that the sun will continue to radiate this energy for about 5 billion years more,which is a very long time.
Hence it can be considered as a renewable source of energy.
