Fossil fuel has been an important part of the development of the human beings. It has been one of the main sources of energy and humans are very reliant upon it. However, alternative sources of energy are developed to replace fossil fuel in the future. This is very important for two primary reasons. Firstly, fossil fuel is a finite resource and it is non-renewable. In the future, fossil fuel is going to run out or it is going to become too expensive to use. If fossil fuel becomes too expensive to use, people will just start using something else. Solar energy or wind energy are two examples of practical sources of future energy. In fact, many countries have installed solar panels and built windmills to generate power. The second reason is that fossil fuel contributes to climate change. Over the years, fossil fuel emissions have polluted the air, land and even water. However, renewable energy such as solar power or wave power are eco-friendly. If we replace fossil fuel by solar power, for example, we will save our planet too. 1. Fossil fuel has been the only source of energy. 2. In the future, fossil fuel won't be used up. 3. Solar panels are installed in many countries. 4. Fossil fuel can cause climate change. 5. Renewable energy such as solar power doesn't damage the environment. T F |
