Environmental problems

environmental problems

The use of renewable energies to replace fossil fuels is considered one of the fundamental aspects for combat climate change and environmental problems global serious.

But the situation is more complex since renewable energies are part of the solution but at the same time they can be affected by certain environmental problems in their implementation, expansion or disposal as a consequence of environmental degradation.

Renewable energies and environmental problems

If current environmental disruption and destruction continues, certain Energy sources renewable can be affected in amount of energy production.

The most affected will be the hydroelectric since climate change is causing the descent of rivers where it is used for this purpose in addition to water pollution that hinders the production of electricity.

If there is not forests or natural areas cannot be collected biomass to generate energy, both for electricity and biogas so biomass plants can be affected by the lack of raw materials in some places.

La decrease in farmland due to their misuse and degradation can seriously affect the production of crops oriented to biofuels since they will compete for the few arable lands with agricultural potential with food, which is very negative.

These energy sources are renewable but natural resources are not inexhaustible.

Solution for environmental problems

Adequate management is required so that they can produce energy indeterminately, but if it is degraded or overexploited, its ability to do so is reduced or directly lost.

By solving the environmental problems that affect the planet not only improve quality of life otherwise we will be protecting the capacity to produce energy.

Renewable energies are part of the solution, but not the only one. Various actions must be implemented to avoid continuing to damage ecosystems and natural resources. Only in this way will it be possible to guarantee the possibility of producing significant quantities of clean energy based on renewable energy sources for all kinds of long-term activities.
