Overview: Website References These are some convenient website references that deal with renewable energy Bookmark the sites that to which you may wish to return Please provide other useful major websites to the author Nonrenewable energies come from combustion of coal, oil, and natural gas. Their creation took millions of years, and we are using it faster than it was produced and faster than it is being created. Renewable energies come from the sun. Collection is from natural occurrences. While the energy is free, it costs money to collect it. Nuclear and geothermal energies aren’t renewable but are treated that way since the quantity is so large. 030214
