Question

how is the increase in demand for energy affecting our environment adversely ?

Answer 1

All energies are not adverse to the environment. Explosive types of energies like Nuclear energy which generally consists of the Uranium 235 (a strong radioactive element) affects the environment adversely. May the alpha, beta and gamma rays radiating from that particle (U-235) cause genetic problems which can last even for 3-4 hours in that place where the strong radiation occurs. Energy should be used goodly and not from the adverse side. Thus, increase in demand for energy (specially dangerous types of energies) affect our environment adversely.
