Are we running low on fossil fuels? In short, yes. Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10 Source: The End

Is Global Climate Change Real? Yes, and it’s on us. Source: Wilson Source: Honeywell Source: Rehman Source: E.G.

Solar Power Cool, but expensive— and situational. Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10 Source: Average

Wind Power Cheaper than solar, but even harder to place. Source: Wilson Source: Honeywell Source: Rehman Source: 3Tier

Geothermal Power Very pricy, but more available. Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10 Source: AGEA

Hydroelectric Power The big guy. Huge costs for huge power Source: Wilson Source: Honeywell Source: Rehman Source: USGS

Biomass Fuel Easy transition, but quite a few problems. Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10 Source: Solix

Hydrogen Fuel Dangerous, but alluring. Clean and proven. Source: Wilson Source: Honeywell Source: Rehman

So What’s The Answer? Everything’s got problems. Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10

Mixed Solution Proportional implantation are the relevant buzzwords. Source: Wilson Source: Honeywell Source: Rehman Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10

What About Nuclear? Fission's got waste issues, Fusion's just vaporware. Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10

In short, get out there and promote alternative energy! Source: Wilson Source: Honeywell Source: Rehman Source: GrobeSource: GonzalezSource: PS10
