Alternative energy sources growing in importance
While stocks of fossil fuels are not due to run out in the near future, it is certain that they are a limited resource and that at some point we will have to find alternative energy sources to power out technology.
Although still in the early stages of development, there are a number of possible energy sources which are currently being explored. Wind power looks promising, as does wave power, with a number of successful projects already underway. Solar power is also a real possibility as technology improves and makes solar cells more efficient. While not yet urgent, the search for alternative energy sources is increasingly important in the modern age.
