Solar Energy is captured by using the sun. Clip Art Solar energy is a renewable resource because the sun is constantly giving out energy.

Solar Panels contain Solar Cells http://greensolutionshelp.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Solar-Panel-Step-By-Step.jpg Sunlight is captured in solar cells and it is then used to make electricity.

Example Image of Solar Energy Transfer http://www.houstonzoo.org/attachments/files/1012/Solar_Kids.jpg

Solar Energy Cells in Space http://www.nasm.si.edu/exhibitions/gal114/spacerace/sec500/sec573.htm The space station uses solar energy.

People already depend on solar energy to naturally heat pools and greenhouses.

Advantages Renewable – The sunlight will not run out for billions of years. Non-pollutant – Energy from the sun does not cause or increase pollution.

Disadvantages It is expensive to make and maintain solar panels. Production of solar panels can create a dangerous waste. http://www.zazzle.com/frowning_sun_ornament_photosculpture-153114000262074519

Overall Solar Energy is an alternative way to provide electricity and power to our communities. People should invest in using renewable resources and get away from consuming fossil fuels. I will look for ways to make a difference through supporting solar energy.
