I'm 22 and I need to do something with my life. The salaries of the two careers are around the same, but I want a job that will last. Renewable energy is suppose to be big in the future, but I'm sure how many jobs will be available. Any suggestions?

Geothermal energy is often the great hope of renewable energy as it can be continuously and reliably produced 24/7. While it it has the best potential, it is very limited geographically. The best geothermal resources are in Alaska and California, and the best potential resources are west of the Rockies. How do we overcome the geographic limitations of geothermal energy?

When did we first really discover renewable energy?

Im thinking of going to school to get an associates of applied sciences degree in renewable energy. I was just wondering what kind of money someone with that would make.

I am looking to go into renewable energy, I want to be the person who goes out and fix the windmills and such, what is the name of that career path?

how else can a state produce renewable energy other than wind farms?

Why doesnt the government make everything with renewable energy? why are factories and plants still using fossil fuels?

I am moving to Dallas, and in Dallas they have like 20 different electric companies and some offer 100% renewable energy such as Green Mountain. I come to the conclusion that the cost is about 30-40% more than ones who don't use renewable energy. Do you think paying the difference is worth it?

I'm really worried about the economy and looking for a quick certification so I can have some sort of qualification in case it totally goes under. I found a 14 credit hour renewable energy certification at a community college. Do you think this will do any good for finding jobs?

Why isnt there a massive program to include the ocean waves as a source of renewable energy? there are trillions of gallons pushed upon american shores everyday. There is no way to deplete this because the waves are cause by the pull of the moon. If there was a way to turn those waves into energy, then why hasnt man, with all the technology done it? And P.S. i know they have done it in a small way but in talking a massive!
P.S. not all of american shores have a beach.

im trying to get my parents to get solar panels. i was wondering if anyone new what kind of things you can get them to power and if you had any other good sources of renewable energy to use at home?

I need good definitions for both

non-renewable energy source

and renewable energy source.

If you wanted to start a career designing and working with renewable energy like solar, wind, hydroelectric ect., what would your job title be?
If I were to start a career studying renewable energy specifically solar and trying to improve on it in the world, what would my occupation title be?
I dont want to work as the person actually buiding it, I want to be the person that figures out how the energy works. I want to work basically with all energy types but want to work on find the best way to store and produce energy. More lik a scientist wrather than an engineer.

Out of Solar energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy,and hydro energy what is the most common?

So i would be happy if you suggest me some topics in which i can do my project under renewable energy sources.

I have to make a powerpoint and write a speech based on fossil fuels vs renewable energy. My teacher never specified what information to include in our research. What do i include?

Essay Prompt...What is the most important environmental problem we face and why? ....................................................................................................................................................................................................

I believe the most telling environmental problem that the United States (and many other countries) will face in the near future will be the transition away from a fossil fuel based society. In order to accomplish this, we must make a concerted push towards an environmentally conscious, technologically advanced, and humanistic renewable energy generation. The resources available to achieve this are essentially limitless, with new ways to utilize them being introduced almost daily. As a matter of fact, there are some extremely promising options that are already in use, such as the production of wind, solar, and geothermal energy. Ultimately though, it will be public policy and political decision makers which will dictate whether or not these efforts are successful, halfhearted, or even pursed at all.

Let me know what I can do to improve this, best answer will get best answer....

I have to give a presentation on the controversial topic renewable energy and i wanted to know exactly what is controversial about it? I am specifically doing wind energy so anything specifically about that would help also. thanks.

There are all kinds of renewable enery technologies making news these days. Solar PV, Solar Hot Water, Wind, Geothermal. How can I determine which one is right for my home?

I am researching on renewable energy.

So far I know Singapore has implemented biomass, solar energy and fuel cells.

The problem that I am facing is that when I search the net for renewable energy, all the information given are not within Singapore region. I need someone to tell me where can I find more information on renewable energy in Singapore.

Do anyone know which companies uses renewable energy? Who can I find to know more about the topic?

Is there any other students doing major project on renewable energy? If yes, email me. I hope to work together to produce good results.

Thanks a Lot!

I'm moving out to a rural area where my friends say power is very expensive. I'm looking for some alternate sources of power. Some tips on how to make the house more energy efficient would also be very helpful.

It’s already begun. Business will drive toward change because the cost savings makes alternative energy sources so much more profitable. How long will it take for developed nations to change?

ok, so I'm preparing a speech on renewable energy. Primarily solar energy. . . . can anyone give me some facts and figures to incorporate, perhaps some angles I havn't thought of yet? I plan on appealing to the emotional side of saving the environment and the logical side of saving money on your monthly energy bill (it's to be a persuasive speech) . . . so perhaps the efficiency rating of solar panels, or that average energy produced by wind? or even better if someone has some figures on the california rebates given for solar panel installation. Thanks for the assistance

how do we get electricity from renewable energy source?
