WELCOME TO OUR ENERGY DEBATE INITIATIVE !
 |
|
Up to date technologies
for using five renewable energy sources which are normally considered
to be both fully renewable and environmentally friendly. |
 |
|
The purpose of our Fossil
Energy Chapter is to present some information about the origins,
nature, history, uses and abuses of this abundant but declining
source of energy. |
 |
|
In our new Alternative
Energy Chapter you can read useful information about the technology
of using geothermal and other distinctive energy sources. |
 |
|
You may also find an interesting
study about the peaceful use of nuclear energy for electricity
production. Visit the history of nuclear
power and of its public acceptance. |
| A study was also conducted to
provide a cross-national, comparative analysis of public understanding
of, and attitudes towards several energy sources in seven European
countries at the end of last year. Please visit its results
and evaluation. |
