Understanding The Problem...


3. With the problem being that we are using more non-renewable resources over renewable resources, We are eventually going to run out of the non-renewable resources. But, it's not possible to just make a sudden switch from using energy sources like coal and gas to bio fuel and solar, which is also a large part of the problem. Just being able to figure out how to make the switch from the un eco-friendly energy sources to eco-friendly sources takes thought about how it will effect us not only now but in the long run. If we stop using all the gases, coal and oil we won't be producing enough energy for all the energy we consume (still needAdd Imageing about 82 EJ energy). Also, we cannot stay on the path we are on using as much gas, oil and coal as we are because after just six decades we would be past our goal of an atmospheric CO2 level of 550 and be over 575.

  1. I think that you did very well on this question. You get the main point acrossed and the picture you used has extremely good symbolism in it showing us that the earths problems and its solutins are "in our hands"
