Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the world’s energy
resources are limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left. However, we also should use them
economically and try to find out alternative sources of power. According to Professor Marvin Burnham of the
New England Institute of Technology, we have to start conserving coal, oil and gas before it was too late, and
nuclear power is the only alternative. However, many people do not approve of using nuclear power because it

and may badly affect the future generations. The most effective thing is that we should use natural resources as
economically as possible.
