All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions.

Show More Energy can be put into two broad categories Renewable energy and none renewable energy. Renewable energy sources can be reused continually as they are abundantly found in nature. All of them are non-polluting but devices used to collect the energy may impact the environment adversely. They are free but producing storage equipment or converting them into another form of energy may be costly.

The examples of using renewable energy are The Solar Panel which is an assembly of solar cells. The solar cells convert solar energy into electrical energy. The solar panels are very expensive even though they cost nothing to run. They are installed in places which must have sunlight. The efficiency is 10-20% the environmental impact is it needs very …show more content…  

Biomass

Stored chemical energy found in organic materials like wood, animal and huma waste and can be burnt as fuel.

Non renewable energy Sources  

Non renewable energy sources cannot be replenished, they are limited and will be used up after some time, and they tend to increase air pollution during consumption. Gases and particulate matter emitted into the atmosphere not only reduce air quality but also cause harm to humans. They consist of fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas.

Fossil fuel steam plant

The fuel used may be coal, oil or natural gas. These fuels are non renewable. In the power station, the burning fuel heats water in a boiler to produce steam. The high-pressure steam drives a turbine to generate electricity. The efficiency is 30-40%. The environmental impacts are burning fossil fuel produces CO2 which increases greenhouse effect. Burning of coal or oil produces SO2 which causes acid rain
