. On most part, energy is created by burning fossil fuels -- coal, natural gas and oil. The problem
with this is that these resources are finite. At the current rate of use, it is expected that the world will
run out of fossil fuels in thirty to forty years to come. As a result, it will no longer be possible to
generate power to operate factories and vehicles or to light and heat houses. This world-wide problem
can be resolved through the implementation of two possible solutions. The first solution is to improve
conservation efforts. In order to do this, governments can try to raise public awareness, discourage
over-consumption and encourage recycling. For example, they can encourage the installation of high-
efficiency light bulbs in homes and offices. They can inform the public of the amount of energy saved
by simply turning off lights that are not being used or by using public transport more and cars less.
They can also pass laws mandating the recycling of whatever possible. Improvements in conservation
will surely extend the life of current fuels but they are not complete answers to what will happen when
fossil fuels eventually run out. The second and better solution, therefore, is to use alternative sources
of energy to meet future needs. The current leading alternatives to fossil fuels are solar energy and
fusion, which is the union of atomic nuclei to form heavier nuclei. Solar energy is directly obtained
from the sun so it is easily accessible and pollution-free. It can be used both to heat water and
buildings and to generate electricity but mostly in countries that have ample sunlight. Fusion, on the
other hand, will make it possible for nuclear power plants to generate enormous amounts of energy in
order to meet the energy needs of the planet indefinitely. In addition, despite public concern about
safety and risk of contamination, fusion is a safe and clean source of energy as modern power plants
take strict safety measures to prevent potential nuclear disasters and leaks. In conclusion, in order to
have sufficient energy for the next century, it will be necessary to develop and encourage the use of
alternative energy sources worldwide.
