What are some new designs in tidal power?
300
It is a renewable resource,alternative to fossil fuels,plentiful,widely distributed,clean,and produces greenhouse gases.
What is wind energy?
300
passive solar or active solar depending on the way they capture, convert and distribute solar energy.

400
wind energy.
What is the fastest growing segment of renewable energy resources?
400
orienting a building to the Sun, selecting materials with favorable thermal mass or light dispersing properties, and designing spaces that naturally circulate air.
What do passive solar techniques include?
400
less air pollution and harmful fumes coming from the tailpipes.
What are some of the benefits of electric cars?
500
- Nuclear power costs about the same as coal, so it's not expensive to make. -Does not produce smoke or carbon dioxide, so it does not contribute to the greenhouse effect. - Produces huge amounts of energy from small amounts of fuel.
