The other problem with fossil fuels is that they are quickly running out, some experts have suggested that within 50 years our supplies of fossil fuels will of run out. That would cause huge problems for generating power and running vehicles. One of the best alternative methods of generating power so far is solar power.
Solar power is so good because it’s reliable, clean and doesn’t cause any pollution. These panels collect sunlight and convert the suns energy into electricity.

Human activity invariably has an impact on the earth’s ecology through changes to the environment. Major impact drivers are energy and transport, resource use and waste production, and water use and management. These drivers are, however, not exclusive to each other and in fact have considerable overlaps.
Examples of these overlaps are the interdependence of water and energy/power production, the extraction and use of fossil energy resources and the production of wastes, and the utilization of energy for the production and distribution of agricultural and potable water.
Water and Power
Water in the power industry is utilized in many ways, including:
1. steam production for spinning turbines,
2. humidifying air flow into gas-turbines,
3. inter-cooling air in gas-turbine plants,
4. steam injection for nitrogen oxides control,
5. acting as a heat transfer medium in some nuclear plants,
6. condenser …
