Renewables are replacing fossil fuels, but some worry about their drawbacks

Since the dawn of the industrial age, humans have harmed our world. Humans have poured
carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, causing lasting worldly effects.

Now, as more data and statistics emerge regarding the plausibility of saving the planet emerge, countries are starting to take action. Many European countries such as France and Germany have a tangible dream of reaching net zero emissions by 2050.

Reform will not be easy as many mid-high income countries, which make up most industries within the world, still rely on natural resources to fuel the ever-growing world. Renewable energy is emerging as a concept that should be implemented in society.

According to data from the BP Statistical Review of World Energy, many of the world powerhouses are exploring renewable energy sources as an alternative to the fossil fuels that science is trying so hard to combat.

Although these modes of energy do seem appealing, the idea of such energy sources is sometimes frowned upon as they prove to be dangerous if things go south. Take Chernobyl as an example, the Soviet nuclear power station went down causing havoc and a nuclear meltdown. Thus, because of a rising world temperature and concerns regarding the future of the earth, the world is moving towards a greener future.
