Clean energy transition depends on American support
♻️ Clean energy transition depends on American support.
Burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas releases harmful pollutants into the air, including particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide, which can contribute to respiratory and other health problems. Clean energy sources such as wind and solar power do not produce these pollutants and can help to improve air quality and public health. The continued use of fossil fuels contributes to climate change, which is causing global temperatures to rise and leading to more frequent and severe weather events such as hurricanes, droughts, and wildfires. The transition to clean energy sources can help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and slow the pace of climate change. Additionally, the clean energy sector is growing rapidly and creating new job opportunities in fields such as renewable energy development, energy efficiency, and electric vehicle manufacturing. Supporting the transition to clean energy can help to create jobs and stimulate economic growth in communities across the country.
Some have suggested that covering the Sahara Desert with solar panels could harness its abundant sunlight and provide a vast, sustainable energy source.
