What is Coal and Should We Abandon It For a More Renewable Energy?

in science •  7 years ago 

Coal is extremely inefficient for producing energy and many people worry its pollution is destroying our planet. The reason that it is still around today is because renewables do not produce the capacity necessary to power our society. Coal is used to make up the difference in energy demand.

An alternative to coal in nuclear energy which is reliable and pollution free. If we expanded our nuclear energy production then we could rely upon it heavily to power what renewables are not capable of with zero carbon emissions. The replacement of coal to nuclear could send us into an age of almost unlimited electricity for all with no environmental repercussions.

I agree. Nuclear energy is more powerful than any kind of energy but the downside is the disaster that may cause a havoc that will result to a permanent abandonment of a place.
