Alternative energy sources should get more funding then fossil fuels
Nuclear power
Large amounts of energy
Produce on demand
Cons
Service cost
Waste
Danger
Current:
Energy production is 25% CO2
Would become 80% less
Fossil fuels depleting:
Oil: 2051
40% energy
Gas: 2061
23% energy
Coal 2090
38% energy
Last 5 years 3,8 trillion dollars
Renewable energy
Becoming cheaper
Mostly
Biomass
Less CO2
Takes up space
wind, hydro and solar
Main problems
Funding
Storage
Hydroelectric
Heating carbon
Hydrogen
Innovations
New solar arrays
Increased efficiency
Fussion
20 years break even
50-100 years commercially available
Uses water
Cons
Requires lot of energy
Large amount of funding
Still theoretical
Low danger
Global warming
water 0.18 to 0.59 meters 2099
2 to 6 degrees 2099
20-30 species die with 1.5° to 2.5°C.
Other weather effects
