renewable resources Frequently Asked Questions
What are the important issues on finding renwable and non-renewable resources?
I have a project and I can't find anything on this! I just need to know the problems on finding them and using them.
Thanks!
You don't find renewable resources. They are right out there in front of us. The problem is converting these resources into electrical energy. The technology isn't there yet for efficient and economical use of renewable resources, such as solar, wind, geothermal, tidal etc. Work is underway in the Bay of Fundy to create turbines to harness the tidal energy in the area. The amount of energy they create right now is about enough to power 100 000 homes, which isn't very much. Iceland is blessed with geothermal energy and they do have a lot of infrastructure in this area. The current volcano in Iceland is evidence of the amount of geothermal energy they have. I would imagine that Hawaii could get all of its energy from geothermal if the political will was there. Wind turbines are popping up all over in Europe and accounting for a healthy percentage of their total power. Wind turbines are gaining popularity in North America. The problem with these renewable resources is they are not always reliable, ie: the sun only shines for half the day and winds are not always blowing in the area where a wind turbine may be built. Renewable resources are also much more expensive. Your hydro bill would be much higher if all the electricity you got came from renewables and not from fossil fuels. Nuclear power is somewhere in the middle; being somewhat renewable, clean if taken proper care of and cheep once the nuclear generators are built. New technology has made it nearly impossible for a meltdown as has happened in the past and up to 90% of spent nuclear fuel can be recycled to be used again.
Wood is a resource in the middle. It is both renewable and non-renewable. It takes decades to grow new trees which is a short time compared to millions of years for fossil fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas. We have already reached peak oil, which means we have found and drilled more than half of the oil on the planet. With economies such as China and India getting into the style of life that we enjoy in the west, the burden on oil resources is even greater. This is why the price of gas for your car and home heating fuels has climbed so high over the past few years. As we run out of places to drill for oil we begin to get it from places that we would never have thought of drilling just a few decades ago, such as off shore, the Arctic and the Alberta Tar Sands. As we continue to go into these regions for our oil, there will be more news stories as the one unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico right now. We have plenty of coal and even more dirty coal, but if you think that pollution is bad now, it is nothing compared to a planet run on coal. And you can't run your car on coal.
What we need is a huge infusion of money into the nuclear program. These reactors can be used to create hydrogen for cars and other things that need to run on a combustible fuel. Canada has lots of Uranium in the ground, just waiting to be mined and turned into nuclear fuel. Of course we will have to keep this out of the hands of rogue nations and terrorists.
Bottom line, if you want to have the lifestyle that we all enjoy, you will have to pay for it one way or another.
The wisest minds in America believe the government may profit by the recent bailout. Is this actually possible?
If it is possible that government can earn a profit from buying bad debts, wouldn't endless bad debts mean that we've discovered a way to generate wealth for all, perpetually, by promoting mistaken business behaviors, thus creating error as a renewable resource?

I think the wisest person I know said to hell with bad debt lets see how many beers we can get with our last cents.;)
