The world still depends heavily on fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas for energy. These sources release greenhouse gases, which trap heat in the atmosphere and cause global warming. Climate change brings more extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and loss of biodiversity.

Renewable energy sources—such as solar panels, wind turbines, and hydroelectric dams—offer a cleaner way to produce electricity. They do not emit harmful gases and are powered by natural processes that won’t run out. Countries that invest in renewables often see lower pollution levels and healthier citizens.

Shifting to renewable energy requires investment in technology and infrastructure, but it pays off in the long run. It creates jobs, strengthens energy independence, and protects the environment. By supporting renewable energy policies, people can help speed up this transition.
